High capacity semi-autos look like real good investments right now, if you can pick them up for pre-election prices.

Same in central PA. 3 others applying for concealed carry when I was there, and the gun shop was full of purchases for the hour I spent there.

Next step: NRA membership and safety/instructional classes.

Yup, we bought a shotgun here in California yesterday. No telling what’s coming down the pike.

I really don’t understand. If these people really hated gun control, why did they vote for him?

I attended a pistol permit class in NY State last night. Instructor said it was the biggest class he’s ever had.

I think it's a safe bet that most of the people quoted in this article didn't vote for him. I live in Colorado, and I certainly didn't!

Excellent. The masses are arming themselves. A step in the right direction. ;)

I’m going to apply for a CCW here in CA - hard to get but I’ve heard that several people with cabins in the mountains got them approved because of all the pot-growing violent druggies hiding in the mountains.

One customer left with two new assault rifles

As opposed to what, love rifles?

if any person has a gun and voted for obama then they need their head testing and deserve to have their guns taken away first

on this mag holding more than ten rounds

so what if we have a handgun which holds more, are we supposed to just hand over a thousand $ weapon

Good luck! Work quickly, it isn’t hard here in rural New York to get one, it just takes time to get your application through the process. As long as a gun ban isn’t in Obama’s first 100 days agenda, I should be fine.

Then, get a permit in a state with reciprocity (if CA is anything like NY, no states honor their permits) and you can carry in any state that honors theirs. Florida and Utah are the two biggest CCW permits with reciprocity, I was told.

Gun stores in Washington State have been very, very busy the last couple of days.

No, not a love rifle, it’s a love “gun”. You know, as in “this is for fighting, this is for fun”?

I plan on spending a few thousand on a few ‘fun guns’, mags, accessories, and ammo.

1.20.2008 will come fast, and there are no certainties after that date with regard to firearms, especially the semi-autos. I think we will have a few months after Hussein is sworn in before they would move against them.

Get’em while ya can!

I just helped in Obama’s accidental plan to boost the economy. $2,000 straight to the local gun shop.

One exit poll showed 1/3 of gun owners voted for 0bama. So when he starts the crackdown are they going to willingly go along? His margin would have been smaller if they hasn’t sided with the anti gun candidate. They too are going to have to learn the hard way, along with everyone else.

"so what if we have a handgun which holds more, are we supposed to just hand over a thousand $ weapon"

For the Clinton era bans, they allowed people to keep existing weapons and mags. I wonder if they would be so generous this time around. I have my doubts.
