BCM has 16" Middy's In Stock for $460. How does this price compare to pre-panic? Did BCM up their prices dramatically? Will I get a better deal if I wait 6 months?

No handguard, BCG or CH for that price. A complete upper is $830. That is about $200 over pre-panic prices. A 16" barrel w/FH, receiver, barrel nut and gas block I was able to go find all those parts in stock for a total of $360. Add the other parts to make a complete upper and you are at $690. So the prices are okay based on current prices. in 6 months, it is still anyone's guess, but my hunch is the prices won't be going back to pre-panic prices ever again. If you wait 6 months you might save $100, but it might cost you $100 more. The prices for ARs lat 2011 to early 2012 were the lowest I think we will ever see for $/quality.
