Having worked for an FFL before and during a panic, I can tell you that distributors don’t change their costs drastically. Not enough to justify extreme high costs some dealers are charging.
For everyone who’s new to guns, this same thread pops up every panic. Raw materials are still coming in. Factories are still running. Workers can easily work overtime. It’s the same (poop), different animal.
FFLs are like car salesman. Their job is to sell you on a good. Just like car salesmen, some are good and some are bad. I shop around. I don’t mind paying a little more if I like the place, but I don’t like anybody so much, that I’d pay a 200% markup.
