[QUOTE="Hoov, post: 2044929, member: 248"] Gotta jump in. mach1, you should never go into the gun business. So what if you have to scour other shelves. So what if you have to call old friends to see if they still want to part with a gun. That is how business is done. I assume from your avatar and location, that you are in the service. If so, thanks. If not, then you have no excuse other than not asking, about knowing how the gun business works. We do not have all of our equipment handed to us. If something breaks, we fix it or pay to fix it out of our own pocket. Not Uncle Sam's. Oh, and prices for dealers do go up. I call 10% quite a bit, don't you? That is what the price of ammunition is going to go up the first of the year. When it finally becomes available. .223/5.56 won't come back online in any great quantities until April if we are lucky. June may be more realistic. All the little whiners who complain about gouging are the same little manginas who stand in line at Academy or go into a shop like the one I work at and waste half a day picking my brain, then go order it online. They are the same little jack wagons that complain about gouging, but couldn't afford it anyway or don't understand why I just won't give it away so they can quadruple their money at the gun show. I am not saying you are one of those guys. I assume that you are just misinformed. [/QUOTE]
