Interesting times,what? Don't know about the rest of the country but would like to ,concerning panic purchasing on ammo + all components in your area.I'll go first.This last weekend in Austin at the 2 day gun show,in the first 45 minutes on Saturday,EVERYTHING was sold out.We had a line around the building waiting for the show to open.Sellers market! Any semi auto piece + all hi cap mags went for a premium price.How is it in your neighborhood?

Got plenty of them nasty black rifles on the shelf at the hardware store. Ammo supply (1000-round cases) kind of low. People are buying, though...

a friend of mine who thought he didn't want an AR rifle now is in the market for one of those man killing nasty black guns.... he went to a gun show up here (iowa) last weekend and looked but he told me today they were all too high priced for him.... he ain't broke he's tight........ another friend who has a ffl said guns are selling good and prices are going higher....

LIFE IS SHORT.....

Come on guys;whats happening in your arena?!!!

Have to deal with all these riots. at the gunshows, that is.

AR-15 rifles had been on sale at Beane's shop for $719, but excessive demand caused distributors to jack up prices. The gun is now sold for between $1,100 and $1,200, Beane said, while shipments remain backlogged. He was expecting six of the rifles to arrive at the store Thursday.


STILL MORE ON GUN SALES ACROSS THE NATION

I suspect many of the buyers are still sitting on their Y2K stach....LOL

It's my solemn prayer that the reason for the buying never comes to pass.

This past weekend in Medina, Oh, was a 2 day show that ended at 3:00pm Sunday. I got there at 1:30 on Sunday thinking that things would be winding down. Not! It was a mob scene.

Unfortunately, I live in the peoples democratic state of NJ. So, I have no gun shows to attend. But since I no longer have any firearms, (lost all in the great flood) I'll have to rely on my dogs to quell any uprisings!

Seriously I used to have a vintage BAR with over 5,000 rounds of AP and solids. But again it was lost in the flood!

Move away. Why would any sane person want to live in NJ, anyway? I've been there too many times. It was always a blessing to cross into PA on I-78W. Being in NJ is like wearing dirty clothes: You just want to get out of them as soon as you can...

Stopped by Cabelas over the weekend and the gun counter was calling numbers. That's not that unusual however but it was quite busy. I looked over some reloading components and they had a pretty good selection and the prices were were they were the last time I bought.
