    Default How long does it take for supply to catch up with demand?

    Ruger Politically Correct Carbine. It's new, it's in high demand, they obviously can't make them fast enough. Any precedents (in non gun scare eras) for when a product might actually be available? Feel free to let me know where I can find one now at a reasonable price

    Yeah, I'm right there with you. When I talked to Noah at Ark, he expected at least a couple months. He already sold two on pre-paid backorder.

    They're on a unknown date of delivery back order. I place my order before shot was told 3 months, maybe. You're a little late, there's probably a few hundred ahead of you


    Regarding "reasonable priced" I know where there are 2 on the shelf, today. However i am sure as hell not paying $660 + BGC, tax etc for something i can wait on. Especially when i was quoted $550 + tx and bgc from a smaller ffl. business

    Interesting. I hadn't been paying attention to new introductions. I have some Glock mags that would be put to good use in one of those.

    I'm willing to pay MSRP now instead of waiting 9 months or whatever. In the grand scheme of things, that price difference is only the cost of a good bottle of tequila...and I have plenty of those. Sure as hell won't pay more than MSRP.

    Liberty range in Johnstown and Liberty USA in ft collins have them @ $659. If you feel that $100 is worth it, enjoy

    Buds and brownells (on B/O) has them listed for $559.

    I know a guy that got one Wednesday. He really likes it. He first saw one at Cabela’s. But got his off gun broker. I think a place on GB called showmeguy might have a couple.

    I would expect the wait for a Ruger would be relatively short compared to some other brands...Kel-Tec comes to mind. I've waited several years for more than one Kel-Tec I've wanted.

    I know it's a sample of 1 but....watching hickock45 clear jams out of his has calmed my desire some.

    It's a semi auto carbine i can bring to CA with little to zero hassle since it

    1: isn't an AR

    2: doesn't look like an AR

    3: painted stock, looks even less evil.

    4: 1/2 doz 10 rd mags to go along with the G26 on road trips to CA

    5: broke down, it's even less conspicuous then the lever actions.
