Was working my way down my giant stack of projects and figured I might see what's up with parts needed for a BM59 Ital build. Looks like Criterion barrels are still available, but receivers and Ital barrels appear to be fond memories. I see a few barreled receivers on GB, but even then, there are WAY less (at a higher cost) than last time I looked a while back. Is this all just panic buying related or have we finally reached the end of old supplies?

There's stuff around, I believe Tim is still backlogged. Lots of people using stimulus money to (panic) buy guns and parts, so availability is low and prices are high.
