I was at the Seattle PD range today -- this is also a members only gun store. They sold out of 80 AR-15 style rifles they had in stock in 3 days after the talking heads on tv blabbered on about banning assault style rifles. There is ONE hanging on the wall -- which is now "UP FOR BID" -- you must submit a bid and the highest bidder will be the purchaser. This is the only one left for sale. Bidding started at $950

They have a ONE limit on magazines (they are not CLIPS as commonly called but that's just a misuse of a term that people don't understand and is now common practice) -- they have sold out of most and were told by the suppliers that they are not taking any more orders.

They are also sold out of .223 rounds

This is only important because this is a POLICE shooting range and member only shop. While they do allow "others" -- the others have to be vetted by a member. It's not open to the general public.

OMG what a sales boon this has been for retailers and manufacturers!!

Note they have plenty of suppressors in stock... nobody is talking about banning them.
