This isn't really a moral dilemma just an economic choice. After all, this isn't some necessity of life for you it is purely a specific want, a luxury - you could have a Ruger, a Kahr, or any number of other readily available guns.

If you really want one go into academy and have them order you one they will do that now if it's a stocking item whtch it is there. And you'll pay their price which is around the 399

I'm not sure this is a moral dilemna - just a financial decision. And when did it become 'dishonest' to sell something that is in high demand at a decent profit?

If I list these on my website at $429 they don't usually last 3 hours. At $439 they might last a day or 2. $439 seems high to me too, but I can't keep them in stock at that. I don't see how that makes me less 'honest' than Academy, or more 'honest' than the guy selling at $450.

Just sayin...

(I'm not the dealer in question, BTW, just a drive-by poster)
