I went to pick up my AR-15 lower yesterday after my 10 day wait (Calif). I bought it 3 weeks ago for $89.95. The price on the same lower 10 days later was $139.95. Store owner said there has been a run on them in the last couple of weeks and people don’t care what they pay. He said that the 80%ers are flying off the shelf. And are much more expensive than the finished version. The run is primarily due to some nasty Calif. gun ban legislation that may get signed soon.
People getting ready.....
After the ATF BS and the credit card had cleared I just stood at the counter for a while. Finally they guy behind the counter got impatient and asked "anything else?" I sheepishly said no, picked up the AR, walked out to my truck and drove home. I knew I could just leave with it but I'd been so conditioned by CA gun laws that just leaving with the property I'd purchased seemed unnatural. I've since gotten over that.
