Really? We’re still getting stuff in Alberta. Manufacturing hasn’t stopped to my knowledge, except maybe Begara. I don’t think they’re making those rifles right now. Perhaps he needs other suppliers?
Can’t get stuff from outside the US. Locked down.
Vista outdoors runs the ammo and component business now, and they are not expanding and if what my friend’s wholesaler has said, they are cutting production.
He has three wholesalers who have said the same thing. My local guy is looking at getting out of the business, since he doesn’t think he can survive.
