Inflation and supply chain issues are real- airguns and supplies are a seller's market right now it seems.

Nothing to do with the election more likely economic forces influenced by COVID around the world. Since all the airguns are mode overseas I suspect they are more influenced by this and yes that is quite a jump for sure.

Economic stress forces will always influence the markets one way or the other. There are market driving forces for hard assets like real estate because the real value of over printed PAPER money continues tanking. An interesting thing to watch is the sky rocketing purchases of real firearm, easily done by Alphabet org back ground checks that keep setting records month after month for years now?

It may be the effect of the 8 trillion dollars in debt the US racked up between 2016 and 2020.

At $540 I would spend a little extra for a tx200 because I personally feel it's a better gun . The fit and finish on the tx is on a heirloom level and very easy to fix .

+1. Don't need the pellets but I got in the habit of buying a few tins here and there over the 6 1/2 years I've been back shooting and still will 'til prices get too crazy. Already have the R9. Bought gently used from a fellow member on another forum a couple years ago.

I bought an R-9 in '05 from Steve st Pomona Air...paid 350.00 for it, if I remember correctly they had just gone up in price 50. bucks. I was LUCKY to get an HW 97 .20 a couple months ago new from AOA, I can't imagine things getting any better so I'm collecting guns and pellets as I find them, ( I enjoy this Hobby so much I am NOT going to be cought without! ) look for Premier Domes at Tractor Supply co. I find them there from time to time.

Beeman R9 -(Weihrauch hw95) Krale in the Netherlands does not have in stock but their prices remain constant currently around Euro 280 or US$329.00...Would email them when they expect stock, usually with shipping deliver quicker and cheaper than buying in the US...

Worse than prices going up is losing any of these gun manufacturers. Crow
