Ah, that makes sense
It's more than that though too. EVEYTHING is up since Covid, not just Remington's. WWII German K98's, M1 Garands, Chevy K10's, Winchester 94's, old SnoJet snowmobiles, 1911A1's, etc.
People had tons of time, they were bored, and they had stim checks in their wallets...interest in Remington pumps spiked...and so did prices. Before Covid they could be easily had for $550 or so, for a carbine. Now factory carbine 7600's are bringing some ridiculous numbers...$1500, $1700, and even $2000 for rare configurations or calibers.
The Larry Benoit craze was pushing all of this...guys wanted to deer hunt like "the best deer hunter in America"....and they had time and money on their hands to try it.
