Massachusetts is seeing a run on AR-15s–including “a line out the door” at some guns stores–following state Attorney General Maura Healey’s (D) “directive” against “assault weapons” sales.
WCVB reports that Four Seasons gun shop in Woburn sent out an email as soon as it learned of Healey’s directive. The email said the store would not be able to sell AR-15s or other guns categorized as “assault weapons” after July 20. Bruce Sterling rushed to the gun store, saying, “It seemed like it made a lot of sense to come and get an AR-15 today.

I’ve had the impression for a long time that politicians like this, who announce a war on a particular product, knowing the response will be a run on sales, secretly buy stock in the company. That was my feeling, for example, when barbara boxer declared war on, and banning, incandescent light bulbs; I figured she made a killing by investing in the companies manufacturing CFL’s.
Buying SWHC today to take advantage of the anti-gun-palooza Monday-Thursday.
It’s ok, I’ve got my AR-47 in 20mm.
I felt that way about Reagan. When he outlawed private citizen purchase of machine guns made after ‘86, and when the prices of those machine guns increased ten fold, I figured he must have had a private machine gun collection. Now, if I want a full auto Thompson, I have to fork over about thirty grand instead of the few hundred it would cost to actually make one.
Healy is a traitor. Needs to be impeached.
Hey, where are all the FReepers who tell us Mass. is populated by no one but libs?
I take it your comment means only conservatives buy guns...right? If so you have no clue. LIbs buy guns too.
Fair enough. So libs are lining up outside the door to buy AR’s. I can see it.

But they have to learn how to shoot straight.
Same.
I don’t know why 2nd amendment proponents haven’t been beating this drum, but the Nazis were the original gun grabbers. Comparing Democrats to Nazis on this count is ballot box gold.
Correct, a fair number in those lines are libs.
And where precisely does Missy Healy get such power over free people?
“....shall not be infringed....”
Kinda has a final sound to it
Well, there is a (d) behind her name so, therein lies the power to create laws out of thin air.
I saw one in .308. I WANT IT.
True patriots would ignore the ban.
That would be an AR-10...
How is what she is doing legal????
Since when does she get to overturn the 2nd amendment?
