And here's another one - DMPS Panther Oracle for $480. My oldest AR began life as a Panther Oracle, although outside of the barrel, and upper and lower shells, few of the other original parts have survived. But even in its premodified form, it was a fine rifle.

I'm thinking sales of ARs might have dried up a bit now that people aren't worried about them getting banned.

Ruger AR-556 for $479.99. This same gun was around $600 at election time. If I didn't already have a handful of AR's, I'd buy one.

Yep, paid $620 for one the night before the election from this same site. I was trying to beat the price increase! Just like the stock market, I can't time it! That's quite the deal now.

I paid around $600 for my DPMS back in 2010. Granted, that was from a Cabellas, which isn't exactly the place to go for deals, but still it's somewhat annoying to see them more than $100 cheaper seven years later.

Shot some PPC matches this morning. Did pretty good with the CZ shooting off duty, not so great with the Sig at duty. Had a flyer at 25 yards which earned me the not-so-coveted golden stick award. :doh!:

But still, it was a lot of fun. Drawing and shooting from a holster is awesome, and there aren't a lot of options for doing that up here.

Wow below $400.

I think we're in a short-term dip. At some point when inventory gets cleared out, I think prices will go back up. I don't know whether we've reached the short-term bottom price though. There may still be some manufacturers/distributors trying to ride it out, who will gradually give up and cut prices further.

Yeah this will be the era where we look back and kick ourselves in the ass for not buying all we could. Like when you could get a 20 case of Mosin's, Mauser's, 1903's, Garand's, etc for what now seems like next to nothing.

I will say she did see the Arisaka Type 99 i bought a couple months ago. I went real smooth about it and she believed I've always had it.

These are not the guns you're looking for.

I did get busted over the last AR, but I told her technically I didn't buy a gun - a merely bought a set of components which, when assembled in a certain way, happened to form a gun. LMAO

And I struck a deal with her over the last purchase (the new CZ) where I sold a couple that I no longer really had a use for. She was cool with that.

All bets are off if I can get my hands on a new Hudson H9, though. I'll pounce on that in a heartbeat.

Hey in the worst case, you will only have to beg for forgiveness. :D

Now where would she ever get an idea like that? :eek:
