There are some out there - but google is very limiting. Hmmmm

Google is definitely anti gun and removed firearms search or is going to according to GunsAmerica

Been looking for stripped lowers all night and can't find any decent ones at a reasonable price. And every major gun website has been down or extremely slow.

I'd call Derek at DE guns, he may have a couple left. Also Rod at Moeller Arms.
Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.

Thank goodness I don't own any guns that utilize "big clips" or "drums".

Pmags are up to $59.95 each now.  THIS is why I will NEVER buy anything from them. Ef-um.

The owner of bushmaster, dpms, Remington, AAC, etc... Wants to sell Freedom Group.

"It is apparent that the Sandy Hook tragedy was a watershed event that has raised the national debate on gun control to an unprecedented level..... Our role is to make investments on behalf of our clients who are comprised of the pension plans of firemen, teachers, policemen and other municipal workers and unions, endowments, and other institutions and individuals.  It is not our role to take positions, or attempt to shape or influence the gun control policy debate.... There are, however, actions that we as a firm can take.  Accordingly, we have determined to immediately engage in a formal process to sell our investment in Freedom Group."

My purpose here is not to generate fear and panic, my purpose is to show the membership that this is indeed a real threat we are facing. So maybe, just maybe, ya'll might do something as radical as say, writing your legislators.

Or renew your NRA membership.

"Yes - if it took him more time to shoot, he might have shot fewer people. If one of those children had lived, it's worth losing a little personal liberty."

"You being able to play soldier at the local shooting range does not make assault rifles and high capacity amo clips something that we as a society cannot live without."

"I'm president of a sportsmen club and an owner of firearms. We banned assault wepons on our property because they are just toys with no practical use."


"Personally, I'd love to see a ban on all handguns and long guns with detachable magazines. I'd also like to see guns taxed to the point of it becoming an elitist activity. I'd like to see all firing ranges closed and I'd like to see a big government buy-back program with incentive pricing."


The above is just some of the commentary I've heard from folks claiming to support the Second Amendment.

The storm is on the horizon. If you dare oppose it you want to "kill beautiful, innocent babies."

Chin-up everyone. Let's just plan on spiking that bill back into the ground before it even crosses the net! Write your representatives, donate to the NRA-ILA (https://nraila.org/get-involved-locally/secure/donate.aspx) and do something, if you're concerned.
It's been proven that measures like she's suggesting don't do anyone any good. Let's express that calmly and politely to those in power. Emotion is raging, right now -- calm down and take action... get off the "X."  ;D

CTD now has 1000 rounds of M855 for $899, or over double what it was a week ago. 

100 round Surefire mags are $289, a little over double the former price.

they have also announced that they have suspended all firearms sales.  Idiots.

I don't get it. All things being equal, when demand spikes, prices rise. Any businessperson who refuses to acknowledge this and act accordingly is foolish and will very likely have his resources allocated to better and more efficient uses by the people who were not so foolish.

I think for the most part people don't have a clue what the second amendment really means or its purpose. Its not there to protect a "shooting hobby."

And thanks Dan for that link...hopefully they are on the way...

Oh, believe me, I do understand supply and demand, Capitolism, free markets,etc. and applaud that system.

I also understand you don't bite the hand that feeds you. They have a track record of opportunism and when it comes to situations like these.  This is why they have one of the worst reputations in the gun biz.

We're not even in the the realm of supply and demand here.  There's a boatload  and a half of PMAGs floating around for less than $15/each.  CTD has a history of this crap.

I agree.

Businesses can charge whatever they want, and I don't have to buy it.  That doesn't mean that they're not scumbags when they try to profit off something like this.  It's their right to do it, but just because you can doesn't mean you should.

If I were to make a disparaging comment about your mother's morals it would be within my rights.  But it also means I'm being a jerk.  Cheaper Than Dirt are being jerks.

Did I run into anyone here that I wouldn't recognize in person at DE in Lincoln today (from 1:00-2:30ish)?

I'm the asshole that got the last of the windowed Pmags.

I was in there. Snagged a BSA red-dot and a holster.

And brownell's cancelled my order dammit.
It is highly likely the above post may offend you. I'm fine with that.

I had an order in with Midway for a Del-Ton upper.  Originally, it was back ordered until January 2, 2013.  Now it's July 2, 2013.

So much ignorance. And lies.
