Sorry,
I got in a rant earlier and forgot what I was replying to.

I don't see anything wrong with a LGS raising their prices a little bit in this current market. However, the consumers if they are smart will remember the ones that went overboard with GREED during this situation. I am keeping track of whos legit and who has no loyalty to their customer base.

Some LGS are showing their true colors including the ones on our forum that are holding strong to their personal values over profit. And for that reason I say THANK YOU!

X1000 If you're not price gouging you have nothing to worry about after the panic has subsided

They're not running friggin charities. Lots of folks have big talk about remembering the "price gougers" after this all subsides, but the vast majority will just go back to buying from whoever provides the best product at the best price, as they should. I agree with whoever said that most of the butt-hurt is from people who missed the bus and want to turn back time.

A lot of people had their head in the sand. A few months ago we sold several hundred Pmags for $10 each, OSA'ers should have been stocked up and ready to rake in the Armslist profits...lol

I remember those non window p-mags. I didn't get mine from you but I did get a few from another LGS. Unfortunately that LGS has since then jumped on the sellers bandwagon.

Like I said, "You don't have anything to worry about since you're not gouging prices."

I am not trying to "have big talk" nor am I "Butt-hurt". I have plenty of supplies and was merely making an observation.
I was just trying to say thanks to the good guys that have held true to their values.

I'm not butt hurt in the slightest and can assure you I have my fair share of firearms and related accessories. I just hate seeing my local forum members and LGS taking advantage of people in a time like this. If you're not taking advantage don't let my comments hurt your feelings or get butt hurt about it. Being butt hurt can also be said about those bitching that their prices are fair. Especially when you know said person waited in line at LGS to buy a complete AR for 1K only to flip it on gunbroker, the forums, or armslist for 2-3 times the amount they paid.

Just the other day I shared with roughly 120 OKSHOOTER members where to find p-mags for $16.99 instead of $30.00 - $50.00. Before passing that info along I went through each member's posts and made sure they weren't price gouging. I did manage to find 15 or so that had posted AR-15 rifles and/or mags for double the average price. Needless to say I didn't inform those 15 or so that had been previously price gouging. Just ask JB

I'm not going to divulge our cost on anything, but I will tell you that none of the above are available and some have been back ordered for over a year since before the election. The depth of your pockets determines how much of anything you can buy, you have to pick and choose your suppliers since many require that you place an initial order of $25k. But thanks to your input, our next batch of lowers should put us in a position to retire. Seriously though, you might have missed out last week when we sold about 70 lowers for well under $350.

:thanku: Now if I can just find a LPK in stock......
