1. Everyone is stocked up.

2. Polling is indicating little need to panic buy.

3. Gun control has not been a campaign issue.

4. The good guys control the USSC.

I've been inside Apocalypse three times, LA Guns and Range twice, and BassPro twice since mid-October. I've heard and seen nothing to suggest any panic buying.

Ive had everything i'll ever need since Trump was in office last time. Those were the salad days. If you're panicking now, you chose poorly.

I wasn't stocked up being I did not have the space. I placed an order today to stock up being I got another small gun safe. Over the past few years I added more guns also.

Have you checked the prices of magazines? Some types are $30+ a piece. I did order some more AR-15 magazines when I ordered some more ammo today.

If this is anything like stocks, those are indicators that we should absolutely be panicking.

What is it that Buffet says? "sell when people are comfortable and buy when they are panicking" . Of course the inverse of that is what applies to ammo.

No need. If I use up what I’ve got and survive it I’ll restock from what’s laying all over the ground. Pick up a few guns and feed some alligators while I’m at it

If the polling was showing a different result, I would have picked up a shotgun. It didn't, and I have a thousand .556 and 9mm rounds, so I figured I'm good and prices will fall after.

Um, she was a major player in getting microstamping laws passed in California.

Something was going on besides #FJB 4 yrs ago.

I don't remember what it was though...

Want to create a shortage, tell folks there is a shortage. Toilet Paper, gas, Sheetrock, ammunition, etc.

Alligators are very useful creatures.

Why would there be? Even the Dem candidate for president is trying to run as a gun owner. Anyone who is panic buying now is just jumpy.
