OK, this poll assumes that there is no more bad news on the political front, an economic collapse, the start of a new war, a serious terrorist action at home.....or anything like that.  Just a pure as is timeline.

I'm always in the market for a new gun.  ;D

I think prices will come down but it's not going to effect me very much. I pay dealer price on new guns. I will see the benefit on the used side, especially if the people who did panic buying decide to dump their purchases.

Well, unemployed at the moment, so no new gun purchases planned until cash starts rolling regularly again.

That said, there is always - and I mean always - something I need, like a DSA FAL, or maybe a full-size 1911, or a Sig 250 in .45ACP, or . . . .

Hope prices come down some.

Just bought a used (but unfired, new in box) Heritage .22 from my M-I-L (she was just going to give it to me, but since she needed money for property taxes, I gave her the full value for it to help her out).

Probably be a while before I buy any other guns (unless a good deal comes along).
Focusing on ammo right now.

Grown kid, steady employment (knock wood), plenty of solvency (no debt) and an understanding spouse (reciprocity).  I'm always looking for something.  Might be new, might be new to me! 

1)  Lever Gun
2)  Short 6-8 round 870 or Mossy (Maverick will do)
3)  Colt 1911 (anything pre-94)

Every time I say that I'm not buying I end up buying one ... or two, so I'm keeping my mouth shut ... at least until I pick up my new one this week  ;D

If I had money I'd be a buyer right now. Unfortunately I am hoping my cash flow will pick up by the end of the year so I can get a could new toys, like either a S&W 500 or a S&W 460 and an AR upper in 6.8.
