Next shortage: AR uppers and lowers?

[Suck My Glock]

This week, the largest US producer of aluminum billet used to make automobiles and building supplies told customers and business associates that output capacity might be curtailed in 2022 due to a lack of magnesium supply.

"In the last several weeks, magnesium availability has dried up, and we have not been able to purchase our required magnesium units for all of 2022," Matalco Inc. President Tom Horter said in the letter obtained by S&P Global Platts.

I've been waiting for a .308 aero precision 18" complete upper (FDE) for several months now.....

Glad I snagged a 5.56 stripped upper many months ago, not sure what for at the time, but I had an 80% lower that might need it some day.

Starting to remind me of 2008/9 all over again.

They have been plentiful for a bit. Prices have even come down quite too. Should not be hard to locate

It will truly be a sad and sorrowful day when y’all will have nothing to be paranoid about.


Naw-that day will never come for you, way too much sky hasn’t fallen yet and just a hangin’ by a thread
