I just got home from visiting a couple gun shops.  Won't tell you what I did, because some furball would scream stuff like "where's the porn?"

I saw very little action in gun sales (about the same as any other time I'm there), and the sales staff said they have had a lot of lookers, but no increase in buyers.  Their stock is as good as usual.  The staff did say that the questions mostly come from people that don't understand guns, and a lot of basic knowledge questions.  Salesman I know well told me he wished they would see some of the crazy sales the media is reporting, because he needs to fund a few hunting trips this winter.

The busy part was ammo.  About three times the usual activity, and almost everyone had shopping lists.  They would work down their list, and I'm assuming they were at the cash limit when they either flat out quit or put a couple boxes back.  Supply was low in some areas.  9x19 (luger) was almost gone.  I wanted four 250 packs of yellow box UMC, and all they had was one and two 100 packs.  No other inexpensive stuff, and not much spendy choices.  .223 ammo coming out the ears and price hasn't changed in the last two months.
If I appear taller than other men it is because I am standing on the shoulders of others.

I've always enjoyed this forum holding a higher standard regarding personal attacks and crude language.

I don't consider our members to be in this catagory.

This is TAB we're talking about. If you don't understand what I mean go to his profile click on view posts of this member and read till YOU start using those words.  2 pages should do it. Bear in mind, even the avatars did not keep Pathfinder or I from losing patience with him. And let's face it, those avatars were some "well rounded" arguments in favor of patience   ;D But when it comes to politics he's a troll.
