Did Wideners stop selling guns online?

Wideners sold out.  They are under new ownership and should be taken off your list of people to buy from.  :banghead:  Sucks, because I've bought several guns from them in the past.   :cry:

When did this happen?  I've bought a few guns and ammo from them over the past 3 years.

I only ordered once from them years ago. It was a stripped lower and took a ridiculously long time to arrive. It was during one of the gun grab fiascos though so I didn't hold it against them.

I've used them for ammunition on a number of occasions and they were top notch.  Hope the new owners have the same approach to service.
There's nothing as compelling as a bad idea whose time has come.

And being stocked by OO isn't a bad thing at all; his 'seconds' are better than a lot of 'firsts' when it comes to rifles...heh heh
