Ive noticed that Stillwater Armory and Patriot Industries in Guthrie, have both kept their gun prices about what they were before this mess.
not to mention kings was one of the first ones i saw to post pmags for $75. I've done a lot of business with the guys at sa and have always paid exactly the same or a little less that what i can get it online for. I always prefer to give my money to local shops when i can.
Pre-sillytimes, Armory was a little high, but since everyone else has gone crazy, they've stayed the same, which now makes them cheaper than everyone else around here. Had nothing but good experiences with their knowledgeable, no BS staff.
I see people justify gouging all the time by saying "going value". Is Magpul selling their products to dealers at "going value"? No...manufacturers are selling to dealers at the same cost as ever but dealers are increasing the price and claiming it's not gouging because they are just selling at "going value".. horse dung. Gouging is gouging no matter what paper you wrap it in. So when Magpul sells a 100 Pmags to DSG and they mark them up a few bucks that's "going value" but when Blah Blah company buys theirs at the same price and mark them up $10-20+ THAT's gouging. Make no mistake, when you buy from these people you are making your own problem worse by empowering these scum.
If you absolutely cannot live without a new Pmag then ask a friend if he'll part with one but don't buy from that guy who's selling mags, guns and ammo at inflated rates. I've heard them say "well, I bought these at the inflated rate and I'm just trying to make my money back". Well, I feel sorry you got ripped off and obviously you didn't need it if your selling it now so it's not my responsibility to fix your mistake. Certainly everyone has the right to try and make money however it's legal, free trade and all, but we customers also have the right to buy elsewhere.
Until these turds who are prowling the stores as trucks come in to buy as much ammo as they can regardless of whether they need it or not are stopped the rest of us will pay the real price. If you need it, buy it, but if you're buying to add to your already full stocks or to turn around and sell at a markup you are the problem no matter how you rationalize it in your mind.
