Default Does Midway know something we don't ???

I have a AR15 kit on the way from Sportsmans guide. So I just went to Midway to order some magazines. I was looking at them just a couple days ago & they had a few & were OK with backordering if out of stock.
Now tonight it looks like NOTHING AR related is in stock or being back ordered!!! I mean page after page of items saying the same thing. OUT OF STOCK & NO backorders!!

WTF?? Did they get a call from BARRY like Walmarts???

LOOK!:

They are trying to keep up simply put. I had a buddy order mags from them and they said they are really in the red and had to cancel all orders until they were cought up. If you think about it right now if they kept selling stuff on backorder no one would be able to get anything becasue they would be fulfillig back orders until next year. I think it is them possibly trying to hold on to a loyal following rather than having nothing on hand for a very long time.

I believe several other sights are doing the same thing. Not an expert on these kinds of things just going off what has been told to me.

Now it's like they were sanitized right off the site.

YEAP PRIMERS DRIED UP OVER NIGHT. I NEED 1000 SMALL RIFLE PRIMERS OR MORE AN THERE IS NONE TO BE FOUND. THIS MAY AFFECTR MY HUNT THIS SPRING. ID BUY 3000 IF I COULD FIND THEM AN ID LIKE A FEW THOUSAND LARGE RIFLE.

IM SUSPECTING THE MANUFACTURES ARE RUNNING 24-7 AN NOT MAKING PROMISIES. THAT AN THE DEALERS DONT WANT TO TAKE ORDERS ON THINGS THEY CANT GET AN MIGHT BE ILLEAGLE TO SELL IN THE FUTURE. THERE SELLING IT AS FAST AS THYE CAN GET IT SO WHY EVEN BOTHER TAKIGN ORDERS ON STUFF THE DONT HAVE. MANUFATURES ARE JACKING UP PRICES SO HOW ARE DEALERS GOING TO HONOR THEM??

MY FAULT FOR WAITING . MONEY IS SPREAED VERY THIN.
OBAMA CLAIMED HE WILL SPEACK AGIN THIS WEEK SO I SUSPOECT MANY ARE WATING TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS. IF HE BANS MAGS THERE WILL BE A HUGE PANIC AN THEY WILL GO OUT OF SIGHT.

A BUDDY LOOKED ALL DAY FOR 223 AMMO FOR HIS NEW RIFLE TODAY LOCALY AN THERE IS ZERO AN HE ALSO FOUND NO PRIMERS . .

Makes you wonder if the places that still have stock, really do. And, aren't the suppliers making more?

yep this "panic buy" seems to be a bit deeper that the last ones even thought there ain't a lot of excess money in the hands of the public these days.

it is going to take a while to get re-stocked i am afraid.
