Does anyone know of any FFL's carrying the Gen3 yet? Prefer East Mesa area.

Stopped by Sportsman's on my lunch break. They had two Gen2 sub-2000's in stock, but no Gen3. They only had a Gen3 in the back for a customer that ordered online.

Speaking of which, it appears to be out of stock online. Guy said right now they only have them online and not carrying in store yet.

I like the Gen3 being better equipped for optics, but I may end up buying a Gen2 based on availability.

Main complaint however is they are effectively the same price right now because the Gen2 has a $100 rebate.

Just my opinion. The price for the
gen 2s is a clearance price with the rebate. The rotating barrel is what sold it for me. I don't have to remove my RMR to fold it.

Absolutely. The Gen3 is what I want. I would buy it today if I could find it. But I'm not going to drive all over the valley or make 100 phone calls to find one.

I will have to wait until Sportsman's has them available agian and hope I can buy it at the time.

That is about $30 cheaper than the price listed currently at Sportsman's Warehouse. However, it is a wash since you won't have to pay the FFL fee if purchased from Sportsman's.

Not advocating for them, just mentioning the current pricing/availability. Was curious if they were still showing as available after reading thom's above post.

Edit: When I checked before posting it showed a pick-up date of 29 Feb. Five minutes later it shows them unavailable.....

Yep, still showing unable to ship to FFL of otherwise order online and out of stock in store.

I rather not pay an FFL fee and I personally have no issues with Sportsman's. But yes, I understand the store has changed.

They are back in stock on Sportsman's website. Placed my order tonight. I couldn't resist. ETA is Thursday and I can't wait.

Now, who has the best deal on 33rd mags?

Anyone have suggestions for a compatible 9mm muzzle brake/comp/flash hider?

Been out of the gun scene for awhile. Not sure who has what these days.
