New gun availability

[donaldw870]

I went to order a new piece of tupperware, and my dealer can't find it at his distributors. He says the pre-election feeding frenzy has already begun, and he's experiencing twice his volume.

Have I been behind a rock and this is going on all over, or should I try another dealer? Maybe he's getting the first wave since his prices are the best around.

Thanks,
Donald

The scuttlebutt I'm hearing is that it's the same all over --- intense demand based on worries based on domestic politics...

Same here. I was looking for a Gen4 black plastic gun today. My local dealer said all of his distributors were out. I did find one at a police supply house, but they're scarcer than hen's teeth around here right now.

Seems to be true. NICS checks here are taking forever even midweek.

I'm hearing the same thing from my local GS. They are having trouble keeping reloading gear in stock also.

About the same feeding frenzy that happened about 4 years ago with good reason according to what you read. Just sayin.

Darn! And to think, my post spreading the word just made it worse!

Nah...

You won't have much to fear from the curmudgeons that stocked up prior to the "crime bill", Carter Administration or the 1968 GCA. It's all the regular people you've got to worry about.

It's been this way every four years for at least 30 years, why are people surprised by it?
