A gun show in Tulsa yesterday was described as a ‘frenzy.”

"It's a fear of the government prohibiting what they want," he said, "which is their right to own guns."

Jerry, and anyone else having contact with the enemedia (including us), would better serve the cause of 2nd Amendment liberty by getting in the habit of referring to the Constitution's actual wording.

Eg ... which is their right to Keep and Bear Arms.

A few 'Shall Not Be Infringed's wouldn't go amiss either.

That, of course, assumes that said wording would ring a memory bell with more than a dwindling percentage of the sheople.

I was in Wal-mart yesterday afternoon. The ammunition shelves were seriously depleted, and the clerk told me that they had received a shipment just that morning.

obama and the communists have driven the price up on some gun related items by as much as 20 or 30 times what things are actually worth. 30 round magazines for AR-15’s are going on gun auctions sites for up to $150.00 each. One site has (20) 30 round magazines listed and the bid to date is over 650.00. These usually cost around 20 bucks each. There are very few parts left for AR rifles... even at the big stores like Midway, Weidners, PSA, Cabelas, Brownells, Gander Mountain etc etc etc. Guns are either 2 to 5 times the cost of retail or they are non existent. Even repair part kits are back-ordered for 6 months. This is really pissing off those of us who are life-long gun enthusiasts.

We have faced times like these before but never in the History of the USA have guns, ammo and even parts been completely and totally sold out... and as soon as a listing comes online for almost any in demand item... within minutes... OUT OF STOCK appears when you click the order button.

All that I have to say is **** every demonic commie in DC... there are more communists per square foot in DC than there are in Moscow or Beijing. We have long term Senators that are absolute treasonous in their actions and feinswine is a prime example. She is pure evil... corrupt... mean... filled with hypocrisy... and she should be facing a trial for treason for her past and present actions... but like the rapist and purgerer bill clinton... she is a dim and is above the law.

Then we have morons... truly unintelligent and uneducated idiots like sheila jackson lee and maxine waters being reelected term after term after term... they cannot even speak coherent English... much less understand or even comprehend the US Constitution. That is not a RACIST statement... THAT IS A PROVABLE STATEMENT OF FACT. The Internet media sites and NEXUS are replete with examples from these two buffoons as well as many other elected evilcrats.

Might have to hit a gun show to find a 30-round mag for my Ruger 10/22 rifle - none of the stores that used to carry them have any left and I doubt they’ll stock them again unless we stop the anti-gun insanity in its tracks. The 10-round rotary mags that are standard for it have to be the most awkward .22LR mags in existence when it comes to loading them up.

they were mainly purchasing high-capacity magazines and guns such as the AR-15.

Surprised there were any to be had....

We have our Gun show coming up in a couple of weeks but I’m sure it’s going to be crazy and I might pass. I believe in 2008 when Hussein got elected they would only let folks in 10 at a time.

We go to the Roanoke Gun Show every year, and I was there yesterday. It was insane! Never seen such crowds there!

I ended up not buying anything though. I MAY be fairly well stocked on about everything I’d need for long term(glad I got started good back in 2009), and I try to avoid WAY over paying, buying during times of panic.

Hopefully this bullshit legislation they are talking, will be declared DOA in the Congress, and all of this will blow over. THEN... I think I’ll buy a truckload of 30rnd AR Mags, among other things. My greatest fear at this time is 0bama exercising his role as ‘little emperor’ and using Executive Orders to advance their agenda.

There is a different breeze in the air now than when the first assault weapons ban hit. It is so thick I can almost feel it.

I stopped by the two largest dealers in this area in the last two days. They have both had a good number of AR type rifles and I did not notice any of them being sold.

Now the shelves are bare.

People know this president is serious about controlling the country by controlling the people. You can’t control the recalcitrant without controlling weapons. The most useful weapons are guns.
