I'm not sure if this is the right section to post this, but just thought I'd see what everyone else thought about this. I have been to 2 different Walmart stores & saw gun shop owners buying AR15's & ammo & taking them back & marking up the price several hundred dollars. I also know of one that went to a gun shop in Marianna & bought 15 AR15's (7 off the shelf & 8 still in boxes before UPS could even leave the parking lot) & go back & do the same. How am I (regular person) supposed to compete with some of these gun shop owners (I don't want to lump ALL shop owners into this group) that buy up everything from big box stores & mark them up hundreds of dollars!
I'm not even in the market for a black rifle, although if I found one at a precraziness price I'd probably buy another one. I guess I'm just venting. One bought every box of Remington Mega Pack they had, I called his shop later & they were asking quite a bit more. I asked the guy behind the counter at Walmart about it & he said it happens all the time. He said they get in 223 weekly & most of it doesn't even make it to their shelves, it gets bought up by a couple guys that are there waiting on the trucks.
