Lalo 13 Posted January 20, 2013 When you add an item to your cart that is not in stock, it says in big red letters, NOT IN STOCK. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MicroChip 0 Posted January 20, 2013 I just need a BCG to finish my AR but people are just buying them up and gouging for them on ebay and gunbroker. Hope it all eases soon. MC Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vladtepes 1,060 Posted January 20, 2013 I just need a BCG to finish my AR but people are just buying them up and gouging for them on ebay and gunbroker. Hope it all eases soon. MC I believe it will because of the following reason... these are domestically produced parts.. for the most part "parts" are not regulated... the actual firearm is.. so once the fear backs off OR people run out of money.. I imagine there will be a surplus... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JDemented 0 Posted January 20, 2013 Ordered these 3 items from CMMG 1\1\13 when everything was in stock only to have a week pass with the updated backorder status for the barrel nut.. I asked them if they could take off the barrel nut so that I could get the other parts mostly the FSA but they said no because of all the orders they are currently processing..? Tempted to just get a low profile gas tube and sell the parts I have (handguard) 1 of : Barrel Nut, AR15 $7.95Processing 1 of : Front Sight Assembly, "F" Marked, Ban Compliant, .750 Barrel Dia. $49.95Processing 1 of : Gas Tube Kit, Carbine $14.95Processing Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clintoon Eastwood 2 Posted January 20, 2013 Does it have to be pmags?? Let me know if you don't mind metal mag. Pm me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MicroChip 0 Posted January 20, 2013 BCGs were in short supply before the election. It's going to take awhile for the supply of BCGs to recover. So if there's a part we overpay for on gunbroker or whatever, that should be the part? You don't think they'll come back on the market in the next month or so?

vladtepes 1,060 Posted January 21, 2013 Does it have to be pmags?? Let me know if you don't mind metal mag. Pm me. mostly looking for Pmags.. I have a decent amount and a few metal as well.. but just on the look out for when they start to pop up again at reasonable prices.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MC I wouldn't pay GB prices for a BCG since they're not really a part that's going to get banned should a ban pass (which it won't). Just be signed up for email notifications from several places and you'll eventually get one at normal prices. And it's probably going to be a year before BCGs are normally in stock rather than out of stock. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MicroChip 0 Posted January 22, 2013 So after following the arfcom bcg thread for like 2 weeks and not getting one (you have to be awake at 3:47am and they're gone in 2 minutes), I did place an order with Chattahoochie Gun Works who's site listed them in stock. It charged my paypal. I emailed them, they said nope, not in stock and told me to just cancel the order in paypal which I did. Not saying they did anything shady but they could've listed them as out of stock properly. Then I figured wth and e-mailed the manufacturer (a well known BCG maker) and said hey, I had an order, but it wasn't in stock and paypal blah blah blah boo hoo poor me, and they said they'll have some in stock later this week. I assume they are intended to go to distributors, but she said she'd sell me one directly so problem solved it would seem. She charged me MSRP which is totally fine, it means I paid the same thing I would've from a dealer, and they made more margin so we're both happy in theory.

MC Yep, alot of that going on in the industry right now too. Manufacturers ignoring existing POs by dealers and instead selling direct to retail because they can make more money. Not exactly good business ethics by the seller if you ask me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Manufacturers ignoring existing POs by dealers and instead selling direct to retail because they can make more money. Not exactly good business ethics by the seller if you ask me. I would agree with you but if they send 100 or 1000 of them to brownell's, and brownell's puts them online, some guy will buy 90% of them and then sell them on gunbroker for 2.5x msrp before the rest of us realize we could have had them. It would take a monumental effort on the part of the manufacturers AND the dealers to agree to fill the POs and then have the dealers put max quantity limits on the purchase quantities, but why would they it's easier to fill 1 order than 100. Don't get me wrong, I'm on your side, I work for a company that manufactures marine equipment and our products are unique and availability is limited by what we can physically manufacture as a small company and we understand the importance of fulfilling our dealers orders despite the temptation of greater profit margin from direct sales, but if they (I still won't say it but somebody who's not me blew it up on arfcom and their phones are ringing off the hook) was willing to take my call, and sell to me direct something I would not otherwise be likely to get, I'm not going to say no. Now I paid MSRP for their match grade chrome full auto bcg, but I would've paid that same price anywhere, and she either said it would ship by the end of the week or I'd have it by the end of the week. And by the way MidwestPX, you're very cool here in the forums, and if the climate didn't have me buying every piece of an AR from a different shop just to get what I need, without getting gouged, without getting shut out of a part, I'd totally buy from you. Hopefully when things settle down... I could sure use some 30 rnd pmags shipped to my PA apartment. Thanks! MC Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
