I called them earlier and it looks like they are supposed to have a few in some time next week. So I had them add me to their notification and sent them an email to see if the can temporarily hold one for me when they come in. Since the drive from San Antonio to College Station is 3 hours, I would hate to drive all the way there, just for someone to buy the last one while I am driving there.The only down side to buy one seems that most of the places that sell them seem to be based in TX. This means another $200 in taxes.  |

Local joint here wants $2999.99 for their SCAR-17S.
That's a huge purchase so to all the folks complaining about his man card, that's a lot of money for most folks these days. |

OP have you tried out google shopping? There is a bunch of places listing them for <$2800. The trick is finding one that is in stock.

I got mine for under $2700 Have you tried CDNN, they usually have a good deal on those, but rarely have one in stock |

Looks like if all goes well, I have found one near by for $2750 with only 20 rounds through it.
This rounds on me.  |

It really is a little much for me to spend right now, but I figured, since I want one I better do it before the election season. If our Overlord gets re-elected, I am afraid of how difficult it will be to obtain some of the items on my wish list. On the other hand, even if he loses, the firearms market may still take a year or two to settle down again. |

If you think it's hard finding the rifle in stock, start searching for mags.
