Only 2 ARs per customer, per day...

This one?
Yeah, I think that's it. Only the one I'm looking at is what they call "burnished brown" in color.
I've seen them in another local store too - CAL Ranch and Farm Supply. But CAL Ranch had a $99 price tag on them, which I thought was absurd seeing as how the list price from Blackhawk Holsters themselves is only $79.
I'm glad to hear you like yours. It looks like I'll be going back to Sportsman's tomorrow to buy myself a new holster.:)

I stopped by a LGS/pawn shop and he received 3 new ARs while I was there from a local builder and he wanted more, he had about 10 or 12 on his shelf, plenty of shotguns and long guns, the same ammo that has been there a while is still available just higher prices. I also went by Academy and found very few long guns/ shotguns and no ARs, pistols were spaced out in the cabinet, ammo was low but prices were at regular level and some had discount tags on the shelf.
 
This one? I've had this for a few years and love it. It was cheaper than what you're quoting, though. Might be a different one. I use mine for the G19 and my M&P40c. Works for both, I've found.

I just searched for it on Amazon and they are $57 for my M&P40c. They were quite a bit cheaper when I bought mine. Around $30. I thought it was an incredible value at the time. Should have bought an extra.

A G19 holster will hold quite a few different types of pistols. I've got one I use for a few pistols, and I don't even own a glock.
 
rationing is mostly politically correct BS anyhow- I went to Wendy's yesterday and ordered a TRIPLE baconator...wastoldthey are not doing tripples because of the"meat shortage" .... but I could order 6 more double burgers? :p just stupid
 
I found a brand new , previously owned cerrocoated FDE Aero AR 10 lower with pars kit installed and buffer tube (no buffer) for $150 at LGS in Ca. the other day, had it shipped (20 USPS for them) to my Oregon FFL so no Ca. Deros BS, No sales taxes , the Oregon FFL guy charges me $20 transfer fee for out of state stuff and $15 for stuff in his store. so $190 Out the door.. Now I won't have to swap uppers on my AR-10 ! of course I have to buy a stock and I want a PRS Magpu gen 3 for the 6.5 heavy uppper and I'll need a buffer and I will probably swap the expensive JP buffer system in my existing Aero lower for a standard AR10 heavy H2 carbine buffer buffer for the "liteweight" .308 upper. LGS in Ca. said nobody wanted to buy it in a month because of Ca. modifacation BS that is required and expense of an AR10 build !
 
During these trying times. Citizens are purchasing firearms and ammunition in unprecedented numbers.

What do these trying times have to do with guns? You can't eat them, they won't save your health, they don't sanitize you, and you don't want to wipe your butt with one.

To me, it's a misplaced knee jerk reaction to fear. As far as I'm concerned, money which is in short supply is being spend for the wrong commodities for the wrong reasons.

Presumably people aren't going into debt buying ARs, they're buying the necessities and then buying the guns.
You can't eat an AR-15, but you can't defend yourself from a two legged predator with a hot dog or a roll of toilet paper. ;)
 
people buying like that are either wanting to flip them for big profit or never had any in the first place.
 
Yeah one shop i frequent was down to a couple bolt action hunting rifles. Seems to have mellowed out tho. No real skin off my back, and im glad the shop guys had a good run. Seen some new faces at the range too which is good.
Powder, and primers havent been a huge issue, but getting 9mms, 556s, and stuff like that (ammo and guns) has been spotty.

The worst/most problematic thing, is that the firearms folks are now requiring an appointment to do anything. This means that you need to have an appointment to register your gun, which can be a month or more out, yet by law you only have 5 days from time of receipt to register it.
They are also not registering 80% handguns right now, so if youve built one recently you cant get it registered....fun stuff.
they were hurting for a while before the Covid panic. I have to admit hoards of virus zombies did briefly cross my mind.
