All it takes is one....There is a gun shop by me that has the following prices on two guns; scar 223,$6500 , & sig 556scm $3100-i couldnt see the price on the galil arm but can only imagine. that is so insane & at that point its just not worth putting that kind of money into.The shop is in NY & can only sell them out of state;good luck !..
On Gun Broker, I've been seeing particular NIB rifles going for say $2,000 all day, every day... someone sticks an identical NIB rifle up with a BIN price of twice that and someone buys it right up.
I guess some folks hear about the panic, do a search on Gun Broker and see this gun for sale that is purportedly "impossible to get", so they think they just struck gold, throw caution to the wind and click BIN without doing any more research.
