Barrett REC7 Demonstrates Supply and Demand

From Oliver B:

Response to my inquiry regarding availability:

"We have backordered the REC7 through the end of our production year of December 2009 and are not taking orders at this time. You may try back in 6 months or so to see if we have started taking more orders then. Thank you for your interest in Barrett Firearms."

I verified this with the Barrett rep before passing it on.

It all depends on how you look at it, whether you consider this good news or bad news. If you can afford one, it's OK to be disappointed. If you can't, rejoice that some of your countrymen understand the nature of what we face and are making wise investments.

I also don't mind seeing Barrett Rifles profit one bit--especially after their top guy showed us all that principles in business matter.

    I always liked Barrett, too bad I can't afford any of their systems...

    Too bad Smith & Wesson decided to take the opposite approach years ago.
    I will NEVER buy another of their products.

    For us early adopters of 6.8 this is kinda great news. A 6.8 is sold out for the foreseeable future! WOOT!
