Everyone's been talking about the rise in prices lately. Colt's ridiculous pricing has much to do with the recent rumors of their future. However, I've noticed the rise in prices on S&W also. Model 29's that were $650.00 a year ago are now between 800 and 900, and the same with the other models. It seems like a stiff jump to me in a very short period of time overall.
Haven't heard anything else on the commercial side of a Colt company sale since the rumors about the gov't side and a General Dynamics buy-out a few weeks ago. Furthermore, there isn't anything on the General Dynamics Press Releases web site to substantiate the earlier rumor.
Anybody think this is maybe short term and there might be a price drop or leveling off in the market to come?
Looking for opinions. I've been buying revolvers for about 2-1/2 years and have never seen prices "shoot up" like this.
