Wow. $2500 for a Vbob. That's $600 more than I paid for mine in November. At least there are guns available.

The biggest pain in the a** you'll probably ever have to deal with watches you from the mirror every morning.

Good judgment comes from experience, and most of that comes from bad judgment.

If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop digging.

I was flabbergasted that the VBOB was so high buta full size duty finish was the more 'reasonable' $1800ish. PLus 9% to the government adds over $200 to the sticker for that piece. the place was packed so I didn't bother to try and see if it was mismarked or new year's pricing or what was up with it.

Bought my DW CCO three weeks ago at a very large gun show, and I paid $1500 with tax. Crazy prices...

My LGS has some in stock but not many of the s, or other sought after items. They are getting a few things in stock 1-2 at a time. Heck i picked up a shield in 9mm. I have seen about 2 dozen ar15's come through to them. bit by bit it is making it through.

Ammo is a different story. They are not getting enough ammo to sell outside of their range use. What PD ammo comes in seems to get picked over pretty quick also.

From what they have been told Federal and Winchester are sold out for the year.
