It sounds like a job for me!
I'm very disappoint with most of our LGS saying they wouldn't increase prices and bashing others for doing so at the last gun show. Yet following the holiday weekend / the gun show they have decided to increase their prices by 75%-300%. I'll be adding yet another LGS to my DO NOT BUY FROM list.
I totally understand increasing prices because your supplier has increased prices on you due to all the panic buying. But I highly doubt your supplier has started selling you $80.00 (SPIKES, CMMG, S&W, ETC) lowers at $350.00 each. Also using the excuse that you are tired of seeing product walk out the door and go on ARM LIST is not acceptable to increase your prices IMHO.
I will continue to check Walmart and Academy every morning until I find a Colt 6920, Ruger SR-556, or SIGM400 in stock. I'm a very patient person especially when it comes to spending my hard earned money. I can assure you many LGS will NOT have my business after all the DRAMA dies down.

no kidding, I bout passed out when she said that'll be $13, I thought I was gonna get a free Pmag or somethin..........
Aint that the truth!!! metcalf wants another dollar from everybody to pad his pockets.
I do understand the frustration to fight tooth and nail to get product, only to have someone come buy it up and resell it online, making a higher profit that you did with zero real investment... when you carry the insurance, hold the FFL, pay the overhead for a store, pay payroll... and Joe Profiteer is making more money than you on product you're not even sure you can replace...
I'd sure like to find a Colt 6920 in a Walmart for $1097... I'd keep and shoot it.
I ain't going.
