Default Everything Sold Out

I sure don't envy firearms and accessory vendors lately. I looked around various sites this morning and the typical warning I am seeing like this one from DSG Arms:

Quote:
Please note: The overwhelming number of emails and phone calls we are receiving may make it difficult if not impossible to reach us currently. We urge everyone to use caution in placing orders on our website - as our ability to modify and cancel orders is greatly reduced due to the sheer volume of orders we are receiving.

Order shipping times for in stock items are estimated at 21-30 days.

Backordered item shipping times are dependent on inventory being received from our manufacturers. “When will it be in stock?” or “When will my backorder ship?” are not questions we can answer with any certainty right now.

Also; some items can no longer be backordered from DSG. While we cannot estimate lead times from most manufacturers, it is reasonable to assume that our current backorder levels could take months to fulfill for some items.

It is our intention to fill each and every order placed - as it is possible to do so, but we ask your patience and understanding.

My biggest worry is ammo. As much as I shoot I may be out by the time everything gets caught up and re-stocked.

Default The shelves are bare everywhere!!

I have never seen a phenomenon like this with any product (except maybe Elmo).
Making 08 look like a cakewalk..
Was it this crazy in 94'? Or was it more of a surprise when it happened back then?

No not this bad in 94. Don't listen to Bluejack, he just bought a 100ft yacht.
Never buy during a panic, hell get a bow and arrows if you have to..
Just sit back and watch this show..
Manufactures are producing these products, they just ran out of 24/7 work days. They can not keep up with the panic.
Now think on this one. It is not the collectors who previously purchased who are panicking. Probably is the idiots who voted for Nappie head..
Florida now, after the 94 panic people were giving guns away, they needed money not guns..
2004 or whenever they elected the idiot? same thing.. Panic buy sell.
Not condoning illegal acts or illegal laws the idiots may pass.
After this panic cools down, impending inevitable depression not recession.
These panic buyers will be selling guns for food money for pennies on the dollar.
Bet a case of beer on that..
