I just read a press release somewhere from Kimber saying they had just completed their move to a new manufacturing facility in Alabama.

That’s the intended fate of all our great old gunmakers. Death by lawsuit.

The left may have to abandon hopes of brainwashing people into not buying, and continue attacks on ammo and semi-autos.

Throw in Covid-19. All spawn of the same Beast, in my book.

Maybe, and you may lose. But you can make it a grim day for them. See also, Solzhenitsyn.

And people are not buying these firearms to surrender them to the government.

Assuming a 400 million firearm starting point, 21 million added to that is slightly over a 5% increase in a single year. That is a yuge increase. If it happens again in 2021, that means another 22 million firearms added to the stock. If it kept up for the entire Harris administration (assuming they get in) US citizens would collectively own a half a billion firearms.

The number purchased would be far higher if the arms and ammunition were available to buy.

I have a G-19 3rd Gen and love that gun. Not surprised it sells well for you.

I have a G19 3rd Gen, too. Never had a single problem with it.

“I have a G19 3rd Gen, too. Never had a single problem with it.”

Same thing. Pretty sure I bought it in 2007. 13 years at the range and one jam, but it was with some second hand cheap ammo. I think that was the problem, not the gun.

Speak for yourself, Sir.

When these Satanic bastards stupidly ignite the hot war against We The People, I foresee more of them ending up in large stacks than our numbers. I also foresee most of them going full chickenshit mode when their buddies are reduced to strawberry jam.

Don’t believe me? Just wait and see.
