The problem is like the run on M193 ammo. Go to AR15 and listen to what some of those guys are hording. Some with over 10K rounds. So, right now Buds and others are havinga run on AR15's and such. And people are driving up the prices. When Martin Omalley got in office here in MD, everybody was worried about a vote on the books to ban AR15's in MD. YOu couldn't find a bushmaster anywhere. I was even stupid enough to pay 100 dollars more than I should. I paid 1050 dollars for a bushy carbine. I know, I was crazy.
