Anyone here into firearms?

In the wake of the Confiscationist's calls for more "gun control," that ARs are flying off the shelves or hard to get now...again?

Flying off the shelves, and the great ammo shortage of 2016 is already underway. Hard to find good 5.56 or .223.

Going by what I've read, sales are up for most guns - S&W stock made a nice jump recently.

I can get centerfire ammo locally but rimfire stuff can be hard to find. Local stores are frequently out of .22 LR and I had to drive 35 miles to get some .22 Magnums. .17 WMRs are usually in stock but often only in limited quantities (1 or 2 boxes).
12 gauge shells are still plentiful.

"Specialty" ammo (LAP, tracer, flechette, &c), is no problem since Firequest is located in town. I can get some good deals buying stuff that they are discontinuing or don't have enough of to put in the catalog.

Was just at Cabela's by Wheeling WV. They had plenty of .22's and other calibers. AR's and the like have jumped in price again. I bought my daughter a S&W M&P 22 Compact for Christmas so that she can practice without costing me an arm and leg.

Ruger's new plain Jane AR15. I have an AR10 and for the price through my FFL, $571 I couldn't beat the price. But, I had saved up money to put down on a Z and trade my Challenger. Once, to my surprise, I discovered the Challenger had been in a front end crash, I needed every dime I had saved to buy the Z. I did so and then the mass shootings and here we go again.
