[QUOTE="SoonerP226, post: 3713604, member: 26737"] They most likely didn't up the price "just because." As a friend of mine in retail explained it to me years ago, what he paid for a widget doesn't matter as much as what it'll cost him to buy the next one. If, f'rinstance, Ace paid $14 for the helmet, but it will cost them $23 to replace it, why should they sell it for $20? And y'all are acting like prices don't normally go up at the start of the year. Hell, anyone who's spent any time even peripherally associated with the business side of firearms knows that most, if not all, shooting-related company raise their prices after the SHOT Show like clockwork.
