Count me in there. Bought a lower at a gun show yesterday.

The figures do not include sales through unlicensed dealers, which do not require background checks and are said to account for 40 percent of all gun sales in the United States.
Would love to see how they get these statistics. How can you count that which is not officially counted?

The Obama administration has create a boom-time, “golden era” for the gun industry -a real American manufacturing success story! This has been one of the only bright spots in the economy.

How was the general pricing? I’ve seen few vendors giving actual discounts this season.

Dear NY Times, it’s not the call to arms, it’s the call to de-arm, dipsh*ts. As someone mentioned on Twitter, that front page editorial was the greatest marketing blitz for Smith and Wesson ever

50 bucks before cc fees and background check, something the left claims never happens at gun shows.

The quickest way for a liberal to leave liberalism behind is to be mugged or facing an armed robber or home invader.

The New York Times front-page plea yesterday for gun confiscation is driving gun sales.
People are going to stock up and arm themselves. Americans are realizing the government is not here to protect us.
We have look after ourselves and this is the only way to preserve our lives and freedoms.
An armed society is also a polite society. We have nothing to fear from it and much to gain.

There is no doubt in my mind there will be a Constitutional Amendment repealing the Second and modifying the First Amendments before this century is over. Probably around 2050. If there is a constitution to amend in 2100.

Just the fact that Americans are afraid that the government is going to take their guns tells me that we no longer live in what was once our America. The Constitution and Bill or Rights prohibits the government from acting this way. Welcome to the communist police state.

Went to few stores last night, Cabella’s, Sports Authority and Bass Pro. The gun counters are usually busy this time of year but last night was insane. Longest lines I have ever seen for guns at these stores.
It may be anecdotal but I think it is actually representative.

I went to gun shows for YEARS, decades......in truth, better deals can be had elsewhere. Never go to a gun show on the first day. Go on the last day in the afternoon and be ready with a wad of cash and an offer.

Proggies are so consistently ignorant of the unintended consequences of their words and actions, it is almost breathtaking.
They really are adult children, forever stuck in early adolescence.

When/if the American people have returned order and civility to the streets of our cities, the NY Times will not notice.
