.22lr ammo prices are high in Tennessee:)

[TrickyNicky]

Haven't been to a gun show since July or so. Even then it didn't take a mathematician to realize there were no deals to be had. Better to scour the TGO classifieds and hell, hit up Guns and Leather or the Nashville Armory. You could get guns brand new for what most people were asking for their crap that had " just a little wear".

I do need a jar of crack on a cracker though, do those guys still show up?

you are a true gentleman, a credit to TGO and a fine all round fellow.

Every time I go to the classified section I can't help but feel I'm sitting on a gold mine.

and the only 10/22 takedown on Knoxville armslist is $615. You've got to be kidding me.

I saw it also. It sucks that those went through the rough cause I really wanan get one to plink with. But not at that price lol

There are a lot of fools in this country.  Of course, we all figured that out on Nov. 7th, 2012.  Now what we learned, is just being reinforced!

I thought it was November of 2008 that we found out how many fools are in the country.

[Major Kong]

Hell, apparently steel cased .223 is $1 per round these days. Glad I skipped the gun show this weekend.

One TN based ammo dlr had 13 cases of Aguila 124gr 9mm.....at $470 each and I thought THAT was highway robbery, but $800/case??????......$30/box??????....that absolutely staggers my imagination :puke:

[TripleDigitRide]

Let's not overlook $400-$500 used AR lowers.

[Jonnin]

today,  525 for $19 @ academy (probably all gone by now though). 

 

The price is only jacked if you buy from scalpers, the big stores are not gouging.  

[bikertrash2001]

I was just really upset with myself yesterday when I came in from shooting and saw that I blew through about $150 in 22lr.

Would it make me a jackass to post my estate auction bought,near stock, 10/22 carbine on there for $500, just to see if anyone is stupid enough to buy it? I mean seriously if someone's really that dumb, would it be bad? Anyone with any sense at all wouldn't buy it and stupid people play the lottery and waste money on other stuff and it's ok, it's just a "stupid tax." Then again I think maybe someone that dumb shouldn't own guns although idiots have rights too. Of course probably only the ATF would pay that for one. And I don't want to sell it because, even being pretty much all stock, it's squirell strychnine.

[Raoul]

There's no reason you can't post it at whatever price you want.

We've already had that discussion and ruling by the boss.

[zapfbroad]

About four weeks ago I started lookin for a 10/22 takedown or reg in wood/synth stock. I haven't really bought anything since an sr40c in late nov so I was surprised to see the "great plinker used under $200" goin for 300-500+ and nothing but multi color pipe cleaners to manually blow out the barrel available. Dudes seriously I work, I can't go creepin in walmart every 16 hours looking for fresh shipments. It really drove home just how absurd things have gotten. I just wanted a nice lil ol survival rifle & ye know maybe a thousand rounds for under 500 but nevermind nice things I can't even have that.

Ain't no way I'd post it on here for that price! Then I'd look like an idiot, lol.

 Not trying to tell you what to do. It's your gun and choice. But..take into account some of the comments here about the long memory of these guys in relation to percieved "gouging."

 

 Just sayin'.

[Mdunntn]

[zapfbroad]

Some guy just emailed me about an armslist ad for my ruger I forgot to deactivate. He wanted to trade a mossberg 715t for a mini 30..

You should mess with him a bit. Could be fun.

Alamo Ammo had the Winchester and Remington 550 bricks I paid $17 for just a few month ago for get this........$249.00  I sent them an email and said I was marking them off of my list for any ammo.  I also said Congratulations!!! those prices were making the rounds on the gun forums and they were the laughing stock of the web..."  So far no reply.

 

Had to edit this....I guess they'll have the last laugh on me.  I just went back and they had Federal, Winchester and Remington 550 Bricks all for $249 EACH BRICK........now they only have Winchester!!! 

 

I'm amazed.  You can buy a brand new Ruger 10/22 for less than that on Gunbroker no less.

It's funny that you mention the price of a new rifle being less than ammo. Sounds a lot like Inkjet printers and thier cartridges! Who'd a thunk that guns would ever reach that point. (Sigh)

[Guest Nunya]

 it's ok, it's just a "stupid tax." 

 

That's pretty dang funny, right there!
