Bad deal, saw the news footage last week after the issue at the plant.
Firearms industry as a whole is going to suffer over the next few years. So many of us loaded up on guns and ammo leading up the election that we are going to run on our stockpiles for a while.
On the good side for consumers in the short term, bottom is gonna drop on lots of stuff. I saw stripped AR lowers the other day for $35 each. And they didn't sell out in 5 minutes.
I don't need anything in the reloading end of things for a few years. However, I am building an AR 308 this year as parts are available at a good price.
