Is it just me or are gun prices going higher

[Checkman]

Well I got my guns and I'm stocked on ammo and Snap Caps. More dry fire time and not as much live fire. It happens. Bad times come and go. The past several years have been pretty good, but nothing lasts forever.

Keep your head down and your powder dry. What else are you going to do?

I bought a SIG P239 about two months ago for $699 (not a bad price for California). Today I looked in the same case at my gun store at an identical P239 for . . . $889. The first Springfield Mil Spec (parkerized, non NM serial #) I've seen in 6 months is going for $660 and that seems like a steal.

Yeah, prices are going up. $3.95 a gallon for regular here in San Diego. Oil just hit $122 a barrel today and I hear rumors of near $5/gallon by the end of summer. I predict $1500 for a six-pack of beer by Labor Day.
