Ironically, Donald's election will actually accomplish what the Dems couldn't. It'll put the brakes on the amount of guns out there.

Nice to see someone knows the meaning of Irony.

Frankly, whether it impedes or advances gun sales in this country isn’t what matters to me. What MATTERS to me is that sales of or an American’s ability to own a gun of his choosing isn’t hampered in any way.

I doubt it. If elected, we will have a patriot president. We will still have the fascist bureaucracy to deal with.

Maybe I can find 22LR and 22 Shorts at a reasonable price and quantity again?

I think the cat is out of the bag. People who buy guns will keep buying guns, especially when the supply increases (and as a result variety in terms of realistically available caliber, etc).

I didn't have my finger on the pulse of firearm prices until comparatively recently (past 4 years or so), but the prices of many types of firearms have gone up. It would be nice to get a Mosin for under $400, or for .223 ammo to not be 40 cents a round.

So demand goes down, supplies go up, prices fall, and I can then afford to buy more. What’s not to like?

I don’t think the NRO should outright support anyone.

Their members are smart enough to know who their friends and enemies are.

Good. Maybe ammo prices will come down some.

Well... there may be some good news, Trump supports a ban for assualt weapons and longer waiting times for gun purchases according to what he wrote in a book.

I generally oppose gun control, but I support the ban on assault weapons and I support a slightly longer waiting period to purchase a gun. With today’s Internet technology we should be able to tell within 72-hours if a potential gun owner has a record. Source: The America We Deserve, by Donald Trump, p.102 , Jul 2, 2000

In fairness... that was 15 or 16 years ago, I dont where he is on it today.

The manufacturers will just have to build better guns to keep the market interested. I think suppressors have the potential to become huge if Trump is elected. The hearing protection act will be passed and they will be stripped out of the NFA and you’ll be able to buy them at Wal Mart just like they were any other firearm. The market will be absolutely enormous.

Meanwhile, liberals are moving ever forward banning more and more. For example, the California state senate crowed as they banned ‘loopholes’ and ‘exceptions’ and required even more firearms to be registered. Of course, they used the excuse of Islamic terrorism (San Bernardino) for this effort - their co-conspirators in the media of course did not mention that none of these requirements would have changed that event - the guns were purchased by another, were never registered under the previous law, and of course, were already illegal.

Like always, the only ones affected by these rules are law abiding citizens - an ever shrinking group.

Maybe.

Don has a real mixed history on guns, like everything else. He has lots of conflicting statements.

Who knows what he really believes?

Maybe when The Donald is President I can finally find some darn .22LR ammunition at reasonable prices.

It’s going to be the year of canoes and boats resurfacing. Lost boats being found will impact boat sales too?

Yeh, probably true. I’ve always bought a new gun after every libtard victory. I had quite a collection until I lost them in an unfortunate accident. Having a 2nd amendment President will sure put a quietus on future purchases!

Gun companies have made so much money, they will just invest in R&D, and make cooler guns!

Good, and once I figure out what a ‘bullet button’ is, maybe I can get one of those too.

We are one vote away in the Supreme Court from a path which only leads to confiscation.
Hillary or Bern brings that one vote.
