bust in all you want
What do you make of the fact that ar15 mags are backordered for 3.5 years? That does not look like the uprising of trust that government is going to make it better. There are a lot of first time buyers out there as well.
Your "inconvenience", as you put it earlier in #369455, is not my concern, and is not a reason to not make sensible changes that will make individuals, families, and communities safer. What those changes are can be debated, but they don't involve more people with more guns. that is why people are buying guns, there know that your position matches many other people in power that don't care what the people want, a solution will be imposed that involves more people going to jail, more militarization of the authorities and subjugation of the poor with more draconian laws. This weapon buying spree is going to be stashed by many for (hopefully unnecessary?) use later. Obama is the best gun salesman in America right now.

Your predictions aren't very good. Hyperinflation? ;-)
We'll see what happens.
But changes are coming.
Cheers,

Re: Your predictions aren't very good. Hyperinflation? ;-)
still waiting on that but guns in working order will bring good prices.
You have a better explanation as to why guns are flying off the shelf to a lot of first time buyers? A wild guess is that they dont agree with your(general your) position on guns

and some made money on it
was looking at an M1 rifle (same rifle most us soldiers carried during WW2) today. Decent shape but at $1200 way over priced (for me)
years ago I had a fondness for the old Chuck Connors "rifleman" show and bought a winchester lever action. About 1k rounds later I could get off shots as fast as him and was fairly accurate at short range with it. Saw a nice one for sale for $295. May consider it later in the year.

No, that is fear being pushed 24/7 by Republicans, conservatives, Tea Party members and the talking heads on Fox Network because there's a scary black man in the White house. For the past 4 years the jerks at the NRA have been claiming that "Obama's gonna take your guns" even though he NEVER proposed any further restrictions on guns or ammo during his first term. In fact, Obama loosened the legislation on gun control including allowing guns on Amtrak trains as well as in national parks.
If the government wants to get you, your arsenal of AR-15s is not going to stop a SWAT team from breaking down your door while tossing in a few stun or tear gas grenades at 4:30 AM.

drive thru ied done deal
when you declare an armed rebellion you don't sit at home watching talking heads on fox waiting to get orders
one determines who needs/will to be assimilated and then take out the rest. 30 well trained folks near an armory and a small trained group now has evens
this conversation is over at this point
