‘Pre-Hillary Sale’: Las Vegas gun store’s ad warns prices will ‘skyrocket’ if Clinton wins

Washington Post ^

[Red in Blue PA]

In an advertisement over the weekend in the Las Vegas Review-Journal, Westside Armory said it was holding a “Pre-Hillary Sale” on tactical rifles, warning of a price surge if the Democratic nominee wins the presidential election next month.

“Don’t wait!” the advertisement reads. “Prices will skyrocket after Crooked Hillary gets in.”

The words appear alongside a picture of a Smith & Wesson M&P Sport II, a semiautomatic tactical rifle that Westside Armory advertises for $700. The Smith & Wesson website says the rifle is used for hunting, recreational shooting and “home protection.”

The ad was tweeted out Sunday by Jon Ralston, a political commentator with KTNV and well-known political pundit in Nevada, and had garnered more than 1,700 retweets by Monday morning.

Americans are a pretty well armed group of folks already. Went to a sporting show a while back. Entered the doors, first thing I noticed was the cases of various caliber ammo. I thunk to myseff, seff, I'll come back and take a look in a lil while.

Bout an hour and a half or so, moseyed back toward the front and the ammo was close to being sold out.

Made my heart go pidder padder. Americans are reading the tea leaves.

How about urging gun owners and those who are interested in guns to be sure to vote to prevent Hillary becoming president?!

I laid in several thousand rounds and a few new guns when Obama was re-elected.

But that damned leaky boat....

Thanks to Obamacare, I no longer have enough disposable income for such things. I could buy a new tricked out AR every month for what my premium now costs me.

Smith & Wesson M&P Sport II - $700?

Where can I get one and what caliber is it?

Only problem is they’ll be registered and she’ll have her jackboots banging down your door to confiscate them.

Well two weeks ago I was told by a FFL dealer the rush was starting then......

I helped. :)

Good sign for Trump!

If they thought Hillary was actually going to win they would be hoarding inventory to charge three times the list price and sell out the day after the election.

Thinking about building my first gun, 80% AR-15 lower, 223/5.56. Probably get the PSA Freedom kit for $399 add a iron carry style rear site and a couple mags. All in about $495. No FFL, no registration, 100% legal I believe in most every State. Just need to be Handy drilling and milling your own lower to make it legal. You can never sell it, I don't think you can even give it to a family member. Could be wrong.

Smith and Wesson vs. Smith and Wellesley
