That's the fallout from the panic buying & backorders being filled. Parts & ammo are available at non gouging prices if you know where to look & the wacko prices that AR's were selling like nutz at are now not selling. Little indicators that things are starting to slow down a tad & will hopefully keep stabilizing and dropping back to pre panic OB election.

Good thing is I'm sure this buying spree has sent deep shock waves to DC and we need to follow up with letters and more letters to our congresscritters making sure they know we will not tolerate any more gun bans or ammo taxes.

They are already starting......

Well….the Dem’s are not waiting long! “AMMUNITION ACCOUNTABILITY” is the legislation that they want to pass…to restrict ammo….note that you have two years to “dispose” of all non conforming ammo…or you are BREAKING THE LAW!
In Arizona, the Republicans will not let this get to a vote….however…we still need to voice our opinions to all the lawmakers….and we need to get these idiots that introduced the bill (Garcia, Alvarez, Bradley, Campbell) out…and any that support them out!
Here is link to the website…that supports banning ammo…and the states that there are ammunition bans proceeding.
Legislation <---------------------Go Here and See....
Interesting how the BLUE states of Hawaii , Illinois , New York …lead in number of restrictive ammo laws!
.
Spread the word to all of those that support the Second Amendment, get the folks that have a rifle, shotgun and maybe a pistol (The so called “Elmer Fudd’s”) that have been neutral on the firearms issue, may have voted Democrat, are not NRA members, do not think it will effect “them”, think Assault weapons are what the MEDIA presents them to be and believe the lies of the liberal media, believe the lies of “cop killer bullets”, believe the lies of “Saturday night specials”, believe the complete lie of the so called “gun show loophole”, and a laundry list of media lies and miss-conceptions…to get off their butt....join the NRA….Write their State and local representative….stop any…ANY…restriction on our Second Amendment rights! We need to all reach out to those that can be brought to our side of this issue, each of us need to get one additional person….the holidays are a good time to bring this up…and get those that are on the fence…to side with the US constitution/Second Amendment, and firearms rights!

There are the places that don't gouge or take advantage of people, but there are still back-orders that will not be filled for months (I know that one personally....)

It is going to be a rocky period to come....

Sounds like the Bushmaster Varmiter with the free floating handguard. This configuration makes for better acuracy. If it is a bushmaster it should have a two stage trigger. Is it the fluted barrel or stainless steel? Also if Bushmaster, 5.56 nato with 1 turn in 9” [22.8 cm] R.H. Twist / 6 grooves & lands. No problem shooting 223 ammo either. Happy shooting.
