Wow! Where are all the AR style rifles? Have the manufactures stopped making them or what? This just crazy... I know the demand is high right now, but you would think they would ramp up production. What's going on?

Hi,
Due to COVID, manufacturing and shipping capability is not at the same level as before. And the moment they are back in stock, they are bought up immediately. Unfortunately, this will go on for a bit until panic buying stop and manufacture can resume the same production level as before COVID.

James, agreed but, this will not be permanent Sir. My theory is that due to current events, lower staff levels and out of control online order volume, Buds has moved more of their inventory to in store sales for foot traffic sales only. This may be a more sustainable arrangement for them in the current ultra high demand market. Of course this does not help non local folks looking for firearms. Cheers and stay safe!
