Michigan Gun Stores Cleaned Out Over Fears About Election Unrest
Summit News ^ | 11-2-20 | Paul Joseph Watson

Posted on 11/02/2020 5:03:28 PM PST by dynachrome

Detroit gun shop owner Bill Kucyk told Sky News that his store was being inundated by people who don’t really know how to purchase or handle weapons but are desperate to acquire them.

“They don’t even know the process,” said Kucyk. “They just want to buy guns – and I’m getting about a hundred calls a day about it,” he added.

Kucyk said he was struggling to keep up with demand as people clamor to stock up on guns before what many fear could be weeks of intense rioting should the election result be contested.

“Normally I’d have about a hundred guns in this cabinet but they’ve been sold twice over. The store has been cleaned out several times,” he commented.

Lexus Lewis, a young mother of two, was attempting to buy a shotgun but “was struggling to hold up to her shoulder” according to the report, with Kucyk remarking, “She’s going to need some serious training to use that.”

It’s a little late in the game for first-timers. Just sayin’

The day after the election the president will be completely free, win or lose, to send in the troops wherever needed. Sadly, some of these rioters will probably be shot and possibly killed, but it will end it.

Maybe a few will. I look to see a lot of practically-new guns on the market in the next year or two.

Maybe they will, but if everything doesn’t go sideways, there will be a lot of slightly used guns for sale in a few months.

“ Lexus Lewis, a young mother of two, was attempting to buy a shotgun ....”

It’s OK. She’s a Biden voter and doesn’t really need to know how to aim it, since she’ll only be using it to fire through her door.

“late in the game for first-timers”

Real late to get some instruction in whatever you bought.

Lexus? Seriously.

I have this strange idea that “Lexus” has no business owning a shotgun, or even a Nerf gun for that matter.

Is it really true that there are piles of bricks being put in cities for thugs to use? If so, why can’t city workers just remove them?

I needed ammo. My father passed away in June and I found out he had ten guns and 40,000 rounds of ammo. I drove back there (Seattle) from my home in Kentucky to collect three of the guns (my siblings got the rest) and I flew back last week and got the fourth (mossberg 930). I brought back so much ammo in the driving trip that my back end was pretty low.

It allowed me to practice. The 33 round magazines for the Glock 19 Gen 4 were a bonus. I honestly don’t know what to do with them, barring a REAL zombie apocolypse.

Sell her a Circuit Judge. Anyone selling a weapon that someone can’t use safely ought to be arrested.

Maybe buying a gun is kind of like buying a Krugerrand.

It is an investment, for the future?

The people in Michigan know that the real threat to their well-being is anarchy. Not “the virus.”

I can see a lot of accidental shooting by novice gun owners.

Without ammo, guns are just clubs. In the case of handguns, very poor clubs.

Fortunately I’ve invested heavily in the new precious metals... copper, lead and brass.

Just think of all the violations of legal technicalities that the Michigan Fascist DemoRat prosecutors can pursue!

I’ve shot a rifle twice in my life and there is no way I would consider myself able to use a gun in a crisis situation.

I keep asking my husband to bring me to a shooting range but the weekends fly by.

Don’t tell her it needs ammo and she won’t shoot her family accidentally.
