Maybe you noticed the $70 pmags, the $250 LPK, or even the $450 cheap a_s detroit lower thats stripped or all the other thieves who are trying to capitalize off of people. . . Now its my turn to turn the tables on you crooks. www.redxarms.com has pmags, lpk's and other AR parts. mags are at $19.00 a piece and lpk at $60.00 (last I checked they used spikes and RRA). They have tons of magpul furniture, lots of different parts for the AR. If you have a problem with redx, I'd like to know when you used one of their rifles. I have two and run them both a lot harder than my colt I use at work. . . never had one issue with them. My colt at work is a finicky little brat and only eats certain ammo. So anyways, enjoy the find I found for the real people out there. Crooks feel free to cry yourself to sleep. . .

People willing to spend more than what you value something, that drives the price is not price gouging.

he's mad because he didn't buy those things before the demand went up, up and away!!!!!!!
its called capitalism. Your type of folk complain that everything is too high....land is too high, trucks are too high, steaks are too high.
Write a letter to obama and get him to regulate the price of AR parts and accessories
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

Nope, I believe in capitalism, I just dont believe in price gouging and making a mess of the firearms industry. There is a proposal, thats all, the actuall bill hasnt been put on the floor. . . yet we already have the panic and the hysterics of an AWB because of the price gouging and the people who are jacking the prices up.
So let me get this straight. people support the 2nd ammendment, and they want proposals like this to be rejected. . . how do you expect to get a strong backing of 2nd ammendment supporters when such a small group of gun owners are cornering the market and making it impossible for everyone to get their hands on a gun? I'd rather have 100 people with an AR vs 10 people with 10 AR's, which is what is happeneing here and on every other gun site.
And people are worried about fienstein. . . Im more worried about my fellow gun owners damaging the industry vs her old [censored].

I've got all my guns, long long ago. Before Obama was president for the most part.
I've also got my truck and we raise our own animals. . . . "My type of folk" are realistic. Plain and simple. This goes beyond capitalism. . . But I guess if you feel better about yourself for trying to jack the price of an AR up through the roof then go for it. More power to you. Sleep well as a thief.

Probably a government employee or union. The thief comment basically spells out the intelligence of who posted this.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
No, its thievery because of the whole taking advantage of people issue.
Fear not, I'll change my ways to cater to yall. So I'll be the sole owner of all the ammunition in the world. I will be selling it at $2M a round. Let me know how much you want.
Seems pretty ridiculous right?

Nice Shot.
You do not get it. Not trying to be rude. Prices are deemed by what other people are WILLING to pay for an item. It is not about the individual selling them being a thief. If you sell your house and ask 250K for a 200K house and it sits on the market for 2 years, then its not worth what you are asking. If you sell that 200K house for 175K in 3 days then you are giving it away.
It is call fair market value or capitalism. Why does it have to be one extreme or the other in your mind?

People are as predictable as sheep! This AR ordeal has to be the biggest most ridiculous pile of chit I have ever seen , seriously! I laughed at all the guys that did this chit back in 08/09 when dummy got elected and now I am laughing even louder cuz its even worse this go around. I bought an AR about a month ago just cuz I thought it might fit a niche, decided not to go too cheap so I got a Colt. I shot maybe 40 rounds through it, killed a nice 8pt buck with it and thought yeah its kinda cool but it was not the be all end all of anything to me. As soon as the prices sky rocketed after that douche bag shot them kids in Conn I put it up for sale and sold it for $2200 and bought a real nice hunting rifle with the profits. Didn't need an AR back in 08/09 and don't really need an AR right now. This panic purchasing that is going on is absolutely retarded and unnecessary at every level, but to each their own, its their panic....and their money so deal with both as you see fit.

Forget that noise

Dang it, again your making sense. Please stop it, the ammo hoarding is whats making me nuts. People just freaking out about ammo, aye yie yie. Damn Obamas sold more guns than he'll ever get rid of.

I get that, thats how I was raised (its worth what someone will pay not what you think its worth). In this situation it seems like people are their own worst enemy.
There is no AWB, there is only a proposal. People are jacking the prices up over the fear of something that hasn't happened. I highly doubt the house will allow it to leave the floor. That being said, Im not the communist most of you think I am. Im just calling people out for the price gouging. Its unnecessary, and all its doing is creating a fear in the firearms world by starting this faux rush to grab everything people can grab. If everyone just relaxed and carried on as normal, the industry would be able to keep up, people wouldn't pay exorbitant prices. Heck I just paid $10.00 per pmag less than a month ago, now they are around $50.00 a piece. And before anyone goes and blames the government or obama and his minions, its not their fault, this is a mess that was created by people who are creating this "fear" in order to fatten their own pockets.
Maybe im not clear, maybe I am. Everyone I've talked to about this face to face has agreed with me. . . . I tend to have a problem getting my point across on the internet. . . . sorry if I came off the wrong way.

Believe it or not I met with a dealer at Saxet and he had a picture of Obama behind his booth. My dad asked him why the hell he had a picture of that sh_t bird and he laughed and said "this jack a_s has sold more guns for me than any employee I have ever had! Really did make a lot of sense

Its a simple statement, people who are jacking the prices up and are creating this fear are the problem. When, in any of my posts, have you ever read anything about me calling for the regulation of anything by the government? The government is the last thing I want involved with ANYTHING. Especially firearms.

I am more interested in who is buying all these guns. Most people I know wont buy one right now beacuse of the price hike and if you are looking to buy another one I am sure you will wait like a normal person for prices to go back to normal. Will anyone here admit you have purchased one recently and paid the high price tag?
