Nice!
Wow, KingBear you did awesome on that!
I was helping out at my LGS back in August and one guy bought 5 DPMS Oracle AR-15's for $700 each.
In January he sold 4 of them back to the store for $1200 each (he profited $2000) and they sold all four the same day to other customers for $1600 each.
Back in August a couple other salesman and I were considering a bulk purchase of AR's, but never did.

On the upside, locally we're seeing increasing inventories of AR's and other EBR's, but on the downside ammo is still basically unavailable.
I checked 3 stores last week and the only .22LR ammo on the shelves were a few boxes of Fed. #12 shot 'snakeloads'.
No 9x19mm, no .40 S&W, no .45 ACP.
Reloading equipment is flying off the shelves, but components are almost unavailable locally. No primers, no FMJ or JHP around, just a bunch of cast lead bullets in bulk packs which is fine for everything unless you have a stock Glock.
