It's strange to notice but I could no longer find any PCP air compressors in stock at any places I've searched so far. Has anyone else noticed this shortage in compressors? Is it Virus related?
Where did all the PCP Compressors go?

Yes, probably virus related. I've noticed that the sporting goods aisles at local stores are getting pretty bare. Here's a Hatsan Spark, 3 left:

Hey all and thanks for the replies. I wasn't sure about the cause of the shortage at some places. Whether it was due to supply and import issues or because so many shooters were isolated at home and there was a massive increase in purchases that exceeded availability. Thanks also for the listlngs of places to search. Much appreciated!

Everything is in short supply. I gutted our master bath and closet last February for a remodel and now I'm having trouble finding (matching) new fixtures, vanities, lighting, and shower doors. I thought I'd be done and the house on the market by now, but we may be here another year. My son in law is in the auto parts business and told me their warehouses are at 20% capacity. My other son in law is a pipe fitter working on high rises. He said supplies are slow at best coming in, same with for the electricians.

Dang, I don't think...no I'm sure I have never even seen that Volt Hatsan model before. Interesting though. Wonder if that is an earlier model of the Spark?
And yeah cea1960, it would seem everything imported is suffering availability now. Sad to say the least. Good luck with the renovations.

I just ordered a YH from Amazon 3 days ago for $289 + tax. They've since upped the price $10. I'll get mine around the 23rd. Search "Smarketbuy 4500psi compressor " Doesn't say Yong Heng on exterior but IS a verified YH. Free shipping if you have Prime membership (membership is less expensive than shpng cost)

Everything is in short supply. Wife wants new couches..... just got back from the store.... 10 week minimum. 90% of display models already sold.
Pellet guns, lumber ( KD/PT), steel, electronics, pools, tractors everything...... running on virtually no supply. Some weird stuff going on out there.

I ordered a new Coltri airgun/paintball compressor last Tuesday and it got here on Friday. From Nuvair in Oxnard, CA.

I took a look at Coltri over at Nuvair but no listed price that I could find. Sent them an email but no reply as of yet.

Call them. Ask for Glenn. Tell them what you will be using it for and the needed hookups, etc. He can give you a quote on the spot.
You can get different configurations with different options. Expect a paintball/airgun configuration to be about $2500. More if you want auto-drain or auto-shutoff. Mine came with oil in it and an extra quart of oil. It had a little over an hour of run time shown on the hour-meter, so I assume Nuvair did a fill test and break in.

There were a bunch of guys on Ebay importing Yong Hengs by the container load into US warehourses last year. Shipping was typically free from some US location. The virus sure wiped this out.

Hey Scotchmo, that price is a bit rich. But truly I'm not surprised given the upgrade auto drain cost 650ish. That's a nice compressor no doubt and worth every penny. Question is pull the trigger on that compressor or hold out and buy a lesser one and then buy a new gun to go with it....Hmm?
