Gun Demand

Postby MSDawg870 » Wed Dec 19, 2012 7:19 pm

Just clicked over on budsgunshop.com just to browse some hardware and see what the inventory is lookin like and this message immediately pops up. Interesting.

Sorry....all Customer Service options are completely overwhelmed. You will likely not get through on the phone or get a response to an email

The website continues to take orders normally, and we continue to process and ship normally, although you should expect substantial delays, possibly 2 weeks

If you want a firearm ?...place your order on the website and wait...if there are ANY problems with your order ?....WE WILL CONTACT YOU !!

Saw the same thing earlier. Went to BPS to pick up a few odds and ends to finish out Christmas and they didn't have one box of 223/5.56 in the store and only the Remington ARs

Guns & Ammo in Memphis was beyond packed today... middle of the day. People parked anywhere they could get their vehicle. BPS had ammo, but no way would I stand in their checkout line... crazy

I have been off from work the past couple of days but talked to one of the guys at the store this morning and said it is even crazier than it has been and it had already been shoulder to shoulder at the gun counter.

Not just the stores- go online to Midway and see how many AR parts are back ordered

Wanna see something really interesting? Go to gunbroker and see how much some ARs are going for right now!!

Saw somebody had a FN SCAR for sale on there for the low low price of $10,000 :shock: :shock: :lol: :lol:

Ordered a Ruger Sr-556 Monday morning from Impact Guns. Within the hour they were backordered and prices changed. My order will ship on or before Dec 31st, what they said. They did say that my order was not back ordered so I got that going for me.

Where did the overpriced AR for sale thread in the classifieds go? Get chopped for the price?

There's a new gun shop that opened up a few months ago just up the road, Desoto Defense Armory. I haven't stopped in yet, but I saw their booth at the latest show in Southaven. Looked like they were a good source for all things AR.
