Who else feels like it is becoming a buyers market again?
The few gun shops I have been to lately are stocked up on firearms, their prices are still a little higher than Nov. of '12. I am seeing a lot of AR's not moving in the $1200 dollar range, if it were the middle of Jan they would have gone for a lot more.
Of course I'm just talking about guns here, not ammo, we all know that the ammo market is still a sellers market.
But I think the lack of ammo, as well as the price of ammo and reloading components is a contributor to a soft gun market.
I'm sure a few people are not buying guns because they feel like they won't be able to get ammo for them. I know the lack of certain ammo, such as the 5.7 has kept me from buying anything chambered in that cal., even though I have wanted a PS90 and a FN pistol for a while now. But when the people that have 5.7 ammo want a dollar a round, I simply cannot afford that, so it keeps me from firearms chambered in 5.7.
Thoughts?
