We are seeing about a 30% increase over this period last year. Hopefully it will continue!

i think many feel they are going to ban out weapons so only the bad guys have guns and it will make it easier to take control of this country if we have no weapons

[StangSVO]

More then likely they will tax the ammunition. In my opinion I see restrictions on magazine capacity on the horizon like Pat has in California.

People were panicking when this knucklehead got elected, that was 4 yrs ago and gunlaws are not any different. Nothing will happen.

I am confident that in my lifetime any non-felon will be able to own firearms. I am not worried in the least and I am sure many may disagree but this country has ALWAYS had civilian gun ownership and it will continue. There may be restrictions of sorts but they will not take the guns.

Until my guns are taken from me I will stand correct.

Until my guns are taken from me I will stand correct. Reminded me of Men in Black - "Your proposal is acceptable."

Two things are perfect evidence of another "gun panic" like 4 years ago. The prices for many items, especially those related to assualt rifles of any kind ( ARs, AKs, etc.) have gone up substantially. The other signal is how many things are out of stock. I'm trying to build an AR-15 (and no, it's not because of the election. I've been working on it for several months now), and it's irritating how many things are out of stock, and how high the prices are getting. I agree that nothing will be done to restrict gun ownership, but apparently a lot of people disagree. And it's getting in my way unfortunately.

PARTY PLATFORM STANCES ON FIREARMS ISSUES . . . Both parties have now released their platform stances on the Second Amendment and gun ownership. One party says it will expand Americans' gun rights. Another says it will seek to pass legislation limiting gun rights. Here's a video (http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001g3fVNoGm6y1eN7EFIfesv2_t08X7TVcLZDZ2nrYhFsCPz_jf hVE-2bTeC_DRO1Tktt9rnW89nPazIQatf0CihDqrRbvBlEMYq8TKbbEyZQXzVrnf xuyjX6Ystf-nBtWu3jSe82OOdlRu9Hx85YphH1LBhULek5t0cA9e1fSnFTDcjwJY61OAHvO kNrp6TOz9UbOap6jOGkFHfnIZvO7x2g==) to share far and wide. Read both parties' platform stances here:

Our business here has skyrocketed, it is much more significant than 30%. We have sold at least 3 times as many firearms as we used to. And like what was mentioned earlier, assault type weapons are in high demand. Even with the firearm restrictions that we have here in CA. I do not believe that they will take away our firearms. They can't, but I can see them enacting California type restrictions nationwide.

[StangSVO]

I can see them enacting California type restrictions nationwide.

Agreed, and I am afraid there will be ammo restrictions put into place as well.

We just bought "Pinto" his very own tank yesterday, and gave it to him today, I think he's taken to it quite well.
