Thanks

I voted Yes. I don't see anybody paying the panic prices anymore.

I voted still there because those that do have aren't selling and those that do want can't find and the manufacturers are still behind in filling orders

Thanks for the input. Ive been seeing parts coming around on a lot of the websites I visit. I also have been seeing people not wanting to spend tons of money anymore too.

It is settling down a little. Still hard to find bullets at times.

Jingles makes a good point, supply has not returned on a lot of items.

I was at a store Friday and they had 10+ ar rifles on the rack. Ranging from $650-1500 price. If you want an ar you can buy them now at more normal prices.

Parts and complete Uppers are still hard to find. However, if you are looking for a complete rifle, there are many to be had at almost normal prices.

Give it time. I am sure another round of attacks on legal ownership is on the way. We still have the same wac jobs in office.....

The Walmart here in Rexburg Idaho has had ARs in the case every time I've visited for the last month. They're getting frequent shipments of Tula .223 and 7.62x39 as well.

On the internet, lowers and uppers are very available now and at near decent prices too.

I'd say the buying craze is over, or almost over.

Everyone who had to have one or two now do. Manufacturers greatly increased production to meet demand. Now theres lots of new stock and no real demand. Prices are back to preboom days.

I have official proof the craze is over. I just found out the Alexander Arms (6.5 Grendel) complete upper I ordered 8 months ago shipped this last Friday.

definitely over cant sell a pistol with ammo and reloading stuff for what I paid for just the pistol wayyy before the crisis

Huntbear · « **Reply #13 on:** June 30, 2013, 09:01:28 PM »

Black Hole Weaponry in Moses Lake still says 10-12 weeks out on barrels...

Unless High Mountain has one in stock?? :-)

szairborne · « **Reply #15 on:** July 01, 2013, 05:58:28 PM »

Wow, were getting some mixed reviews. I wonder if people are sitting on AR parts and not going to use or dont now how to put them together.

I have a left hand upper on order, they are telling me 1 year at a minimum.

Alchase · « **Reply #17 on:** July 02, 2013, 12:55:17 PM »

My next door neighbor finally received his order for 200, 9mm rounds from Cabelas. He order them in January.

At my nearest Sportsmans Warehouse you can walk in and order a number of different MSRs. I'm glad inventory levels are catching back up, but I will sort of miss all the stupid people whining about "price gougers."

Wait another 6 or 7 months until the manufacturers fill all their backorders and realize they’ve oversold the market. AR’s are going to get pretty cheap in the next couple years.

AK’s are still better though.
