And how is that gun related, says you? I'll tell you. Metal prices are up all across the board. Steel, copper, lead, nickel, brass, you name it. My shop is fulfilling orders placed six months ago from overseas customers. And we're taking it right up the, well never mind. The fact is everything made of metal either costs more or soon will.
