After nationwide calls to ban assault rifles and high-capacity magazines following the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School, Americans concerned about the governments coming move to restrict the sale, the transfer, the importation and the possession of firearms deemed too dangerous to be in the hands of private citizens are cleaning out gun stores from coast to coast.
While some retailers have made the decision to suspend sales and stop selling certain firearms altogether, others are seeing sales skyrocket to never before seen levels. Parking lots are packed and hopeful shoppers are waiting hours for their chance to get their hands on weapons, parts and magazines that may soon be banned under Federal mandates.

Every gun you buy at a gun store now comes with a sales receipt and a background check telling the authorities who you are what you bought and what to look for when they come to grab those guns.
If I cannot buy from an individual with none of this I wouldn’t buy.

Remember when FDR confiscated gold? If you owned gold you were a criminal - safety deposit boxes were all sealed and the banks were unable to open them (for you) until an IRS agent was called........fast forward. Guns are ruled illegal weapons for anyone not in the military or Guard by rhat a$$hat in the White Hut (issues and EO). You keep yours - your libtard neighbor or relative turns you in to big sis or erik the holder - you instantly go on the terrorists watch list. No more banking no more flying, yada yada.
I have libtard relatives that believe this clown walks on water and would turn me in for a dollar bill - you don't think the brown shirts will be out in force?

Ruger alone sold over 1,000,000,000 firearms just this year. How many people does uncle have at his disposal to confiscate all the guns present in the US?

I look forward to the deals on off the books guns when
people start selling their excess to make their budgets work.

Well we don’t know yet, it hasn’t come about, but I am sure if confiscation comes he will try the police departments first, the military second , and the UN third.

Nope: Just saying that if you buy from a store you will be the first in line to be paid a visit if guns are banned.

Yeah and their stock took a hit too. I took the opportunity to load up on some RGR and SWHC stock. Assault weapons aside they have plenty on their lines that won’t be affected by an assault ban. Plus somebody has to supply the troops and cops in weaponry.

he will try the police departments first, the military second My local PD has about 20 officers. They aren't going to collect any firearms, they want to go home, and they have personal firearms of their own.
My military buddies from the base nearby aren't going to be interested in going house to house, either. They know the score on the price of that.
Blue helmets make great targets.

Went to Walmart yesterday. They had only a couple of .22LR AR clones left, and they sold while I was there. They had no .223 ammo.
To: Kartographer
Working on it about 2 weeks too late though. Will sell back one of the lowers I think to fund the rest I need to build. Any suggestions on best place to learn to build one?;-)
