I just bought a LEFT HAND Ruger 10/22 Competition, NIB, for about $1250, all in. Can't wait to receive it from my FFL. Super excited.
I had been looking for one for over 3 months, with 4 backorders placed. Crazy times.
After I bought it, I told the FFL my story and the FFL basically said, "...yeah it's a very nice rifle, we can order another for you since you are excited about it." I said something like, "Try to. They're very limited production (500 in the first and maybe only run) and in demand and definitely call me back if you can get another." She sounded surprised yesterday afternoon when she called me back as there were none left at their distributors and none in their dealer network. That's when I told her she could have probably received $1500+ for the rifle had she put it up for auction!
