Nothing is a deal at the moment. Nothing. So if yo havent bought everything already just stop.
Yeah, for the most part it’s sky high pandemic pricing, and out of stock. If you can find something in stock that’s not junk and it’s last year’s price, you’re winning.
Found two Aero Precision completed uppers for $80 each through Midway USA. They were on backorder forever, they finally cancelled my order, then sent me an in stock email a few days later. Bought my two, went to post it here, and they were gone. Found two Faxon Gunner barrels for $175 each (MSRP), last ones that were in stock anywhere.
The crappy thing is I own most everything I HAD wanted, but I’ve found more stuff to buy recently. I’d decided a short barreled 5.56 was dumb without having a suppressor. Well, I bought some cans, and now I want to build one, along with a CZ Scorpion and a threaded .22 bolt action.
Plus, it’s hard to even find ammo. I have enough 9mm for me and the wife’s carry pistols to train for awhile, but I’m pretty sure a Scorpion would burn through it in 2-3 range trips. Of course it’s pretty much the only caliber I shoot and don’t reload for since it hadn’t been worth it.
