    In 2011, I picked up a BCM BCG for $139. I noticed a few months ago that the cost has risen to $159. Also, my upper receiver I have has seen a $30 increase in price.
    Everything is on the rise, not just guns. And wages are staying the same or dropping.


    ...sent from my mind, using telepathy!

    Hmmmmm.... If another company had done this what would the replies be?

    When someone raises the price given the current situation it is to expected.

    Just like in previous situations.

    Just wait a couple of months and see how high the prices will be.

    You mean like LMT going from 129.00 to 192.00? Or did you mean Colt that stopped selling them altogether? Or did you mean DD, Spikes' or the others that don't have any.

    Literally one week before this whole mess I was thinking about getting either a new carbine, or just the upper. Then my friend who was going shooting with me (he does not own guns just shoots mine with me) said "Dude just wait its not worth it, buy ammo."

    Now in this mess, I am like "WHY DID I LISTEN TO THAT! AND STILL DID NOT BUY A LOT OF AMMO??"

    In case you are wondering I slapped myself already for being an idiot.

    I am still waiting for BCM to come in stock. I think everything is backlogged, like complete uppers with handguards and stuff.

    My comment is off base.

    I just looked at the steel properties of what I work with vs C158 or P6 Steel and there is not a compassion in metallurgy. Probably No different then me saying my pencil prices have gone down so too should the price of chalk.

    Price increases were scheduled back in 2012 WELL BEFORE any of this panic buying started (FYI).

    Have you seen Colt selling their BCG's to the general public anywhere aside from Specialized Armament?
