On a side note, I found it amuzing that last night I went to gunbroker and the flash ads were all Bloomie's "I demand Obama..." ads.  I was tempted to go to it and register with a:
"I demand that Obama, Fienstien, and Bloomberg recognize that taking a law abiding citizen's ability to purchase a firearm does nothing to stop a criminal to acquire one, it only increases that citizens chances of being a victim of a violent attack, gun or no gun, and that limiting a person's right to self defense has been struck down by the Supreme Court no less than three times in the last few years."
When seconds mean the difference between life and death, the police will be minutes away.

You are either SOLVING the problem, or you ARE the problem.

Hazcat and I went to a local FFL this afternoon to pick-up an S&W .38 Special.  It's a small shop that sort of caters to black rifle types and such, but they give a good price on transfers.

When we got there to pick-up, we found the counter girl on the phone trying to get sales clearance for the 4 people ahead of us.  She said she'd been holding for half-an-hour.  She added our paperwork to the pile and then added two more before she actually got a chance to talk to anybody. 

Gal who runs the show said she was ready to close the doors because of the intensity of activity.  It was driving her nuts.

We saw at least 5 weapons go out the door in the 30 minutes we were in line.

Went from there to another favorite gun shop where I got the last two boxes of Fiocchi .357 mag JHP for a discounted price on account of I am such a good guy and a great person to know.

My conclusion is gun shops are being overrun with the volume of activity.  Probably Bud's is in worse shape because of their normally high volume being exceeded by such a large margin.

The times they are a-crazy, boys.  Keep your powder dry and your loved ones close.  This could be a ridiculous ride. 

And, if the end does come tomorrow, it's been a privilege to share some time with each and every one of you.

Regards,

I think Buds is fine, just covered up..
There's a new place that belongs to a guy up the road.
I discovered it a couple of weeks ago and look as I pass by. He doesn't advertise. Never been more than 2 or 3 cars in the parking lot. I passed by yesterday and the lot was completely full. He doesn't have a hundred firearms in the whole place.. I bet he's getting those high Alabama prices now!!
With friends like these, who needs hallucinations!..
