[ARCHIVED THREAD] - So what factor will obama being the nominee have on prices?

MrClean4Hire Dio Sa Joined Mar 2004 Posts 33035 EE Offline TN, USA	Posted: 6/3/2008 6:39:00 PM EST Are we going to see massive gun buying in the next 6 months? Lots of price increases? Out of stock going to be common or has the economy hurt us enough already that most won't be able to stock up some more?

I've always heard when you think its time to bury your guns, its really time to dig them up.

And when I vest my flashing sword and my hand takes hold in judgment I will take vengeance upon mine enemies And I will repay those who hate me O Lord, raise me to Thy right hand and count me among Thy saints.

+1
I've heard that as well

I think that all warning labels should be removed from products and let natural selection take its course.

Only two forces have ever gave the ultimate sacrifice for you. U.S. Soldiers for your freedom and Jesus Christ for your soul.

We're good on ammo and guns....food, too. People would be crazy to not stock up on ammo/guns/mags. HH

MrClean4Hire Dio Sa Joined Mar 2004 Posts 33039 EE Offline TN, USA	Posted: 6/3/2008 7:04:37 PM EST I need to take a few screenshots from the big online gun dealers to compare prices in the next 6 months. I bet we see a sizable increase.

It's not as if the democrats were deciding between a Patriot and a Marxist. The last couple gun shows I went to were absolutely mobbed, and that was a couple months ago.
	Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.

TheTracker Member Joined May 2005 Posts 10242 EE Offline USA	Posted: 6/3/2008 7:09:20 PM EST Hate to say it but , I think I will be buying another 100 mags. Maybe a few more lowers. I'll wait a while to see how McCAIN does first. After the first debate we will pretty much know.

I definitely think so. I've bought a lot of ammo, 30 rd mags & a couple of handguns in the last few months.

Your cold dead hands are better served scaring someone into registering Republican and voting.

Or turn them in, I mean at least that way somebody gets some use out of them.

If John Moses Browning were alive today he would carry a glock
If E. Stoner thought a piston was better for the ar15 he would have designed it that way
