[joboo]

Obama...you got guns?...hell yeah?

I'll get em sold!

Yes we can!

[midnight rambler]

Gee, I hope the gungrabbers get a clue.

In the near term, the best thing that has happened to the gun biz.

[gunDriller]

no background checks for Gunsmithing classes, which are basically machining classes.

but, but but, the news guy said 90% of Americans are in favor of getting RID of these evil "assault" guns and are ok just owning over/unders for hunting.


one busy hunting season, i'd say..........

[mick silver]

the gun shop i go too sold out of ar an ak s , and let me say this he;s got a warehouse and there all gone sold i say . plus he sold out of mags also and he buys by the big boxes of used 30 round mags

[chad]

most of these weapons will never even be fired. i have 3 handguns in such condition. why i keep buying them, i'll never know. i have more than enough. it's like the silver sickness.

Seems like the wisdom is that you can not have enough guns, even when you have more than enough...

[Steal]

not too bad, took me 45 min early this am for a MK3 lower. east coast though, maybe time zone saved me a lil time on the wait.

As your stove stash is no good without food/fuel, so are your guns no good without ammo.

I hope and trust that your ammo stash is commensurate with your weapons cache.

Although guns are of course more fun to buy than ammo, a disciplined man must acquire ammunition with similar vigilance and vigor as firearms themselves!

personally i trust the instinct to acquire valuable tools, even if you 'already have enough'.

i just bought some machine tools at an estate sale, heavy metal hogging tools, cutters with carbide inserts, and a bunch of slitting saws. 100+ pounds for $65. most of it new or like new.

i don't expect to use the hogging tools for 5 years. but i knew i was looking at tools with real value.

i figure it's similar with guns.

[Twisted Titan]

I would be going hog wild buying ammo and mags

That is what makes the gun useful and that is the LEAST trackable

Like I said before ........... 2 years from now i can see a Glock factory 33rd Mag going for 1000-1500

You might try to go hog wild, but the shelves are basically bare.

9x18 makarov hollow points are not obtainable from any of my sources... time to find more sources.

Does a drill press work?

[chad]

stopped in to ace hardware on the way home from church. it's like the ammo fairy was there. fully stocked everything. going back after lunch.

ABSOLUTELY, guns without ammo are worthless. People would be better off buying a spear if they don't keep ammo. I see people all the time drop 800 on an AK and 50 on ammo, this isn't even worth it IMO.

These will start flying off the shelves.

Never even been there, but I guess you guys have influenced me... Anyway, the way I see it a double barreled shot gun together with a revolver, would cover most hunting, home and traveling defense situations, wish I could have that...

You don't want to protect your tools with a stick gunDriller.

My local gun shop has wait periods of several hours now. Thankfully for those of us with a CCW permits we don't have to put up with that nonsense. I transferred a couple AK platform rifles on Friday and have another coming in this next week. Same story at all the local shops - no AK or AR platform rifles anywhere not even at Wally World. They all sold out within hours. Not likely to let up either now that the gun grabbers have momentum.

already done long time ago

[AndreaGail]

been holding steady above the 10,000 mark. CBI now says 11,750 with a wait time of a solid week

one of the big gun shows of the year is this weekend too so those numbers will surely rise
