I just got one from Rimfire Sport and Custom (rimfiresports.com) for $19.95 (shipping included). The item was originally backordered. Every place was out when I first looked.

I just tried the Mark II website and got a real estate company. Looks like someone else has the domain name (markii.org) now. Didn't appear to be a redirect to the real estate site.
