If you're the guy that...
« on: January 30, 2013, 12:16:48 PM »
If you're the guy that......bought 25 stripped AR lowers and are trying to sell them to me for $300. You make me sick!!! Leave the price gouging and inflation to CTD! Plus, Its people like you that put AR lowers in the hands of convicted felons! All in the name of a buck i guess. I hope you lose every dime you put into hoarding those lowers.


Disclamer- I understand everyone has their own opinion and might not agree with mine. But, this is strictly a rant topic. Not discussion. Feel free to start your own post on this topic elsewhere or contribute to this by stating "if you're the guy that...(fill in the blanks)". Thanks.

I second this. Lack of availability and expense has moved me to start casting my own bullets. Should have got one ahead of the madness if you wanted one...

Odd LOGIC there pal, but you are as entitled to your opinion as the seller is towards his asking price.  In Texas we call paying too much for something a Stupid Tax.....

There are two types of buyers right now:

1) People like me with a decent stash already.

2) Joe Schmo who has nothing and REALLY needs something.

I have a decent stock and will not pay $100 for a Pmag just to add it to the collection, so that items stays in stock and on the market for Joe Schmo who really wants one and is willing to pay. If no one raised their prices, then there would be NO supply, as jackashes like me would be buying them up just to add to the pile. Free market, supply and demand.

Wow. I am not happy about the gouging that is going on either but just take a look at what they are selling for on GunBroker. For the current market he doesn't seem to be that far off and depending on brand, he might even be a little low!

The biggest hurdle you will have is finding a BCG for anything near an acceptable price. They were in short supply before the SHTF.

OK, I get it now.

I`ll play.

"If you're the guy that... is hoarding .22LR, knock it off!! I need some for upcoming classes and everyplace I have been to is out of the cheap stuff I normally use. I have enough for the next two full classes, after that I may get desperate.

"If you're that guy that... goes around accusing members of the NFOA of being someone that " put AR lowers in the hands of convicted felons! "....



 :o
well....   

I sure hope you are being sarcastic...   

If not, I'd recommend that your NFOA membership be revoked, and I'm NOT being sarcastic.

"If you're the guy that" was laughing and snickering at my $11 per box of 100 CCI at the gun show last weekend telling me how you used to buy it at wally world last year for $6.97....

Guess what - I have 10,000 little copper colored friends all snuggled up nice and warm in the safe.


Not pointed at you sjwsti, just had to laugh at all the know it alls telling me how cheap .22 ammo WAS...

That was then, this is now people.  As they say - this craziness is the new normal! :o
