Gun Sales Up 91% In Obama's First Term

Compared to "W"'s first term. Want to keep guns off the street? Stop electing Democrats!

The last time I was at Big R, they were pretty much out of handguns. Is it like that at other gun shops?

My local gun store is out of everything, including ammunition.

I was in
Big R 4-6 weeks ago. They seemed fully stocked with hand guns.

Paranoid cranks will do what they do. More power to the paranoid cranks. I'm all in. Feed the gun industry, great job! Manipulated fools!

What I find that is interesting is that the number of gun owners are still a minority and roughly about 1/3 of the adult population. So it appears that gun owners are stockpiling and hoarding firearms.

Or people aren't admitting to being gun owners...

They probably don't poll the depressed neighborhoods in the bigger cities.

If you want an AR-15 or .223 ammunition --- good luck.

Glocks are getting hard to find.

The SKS is starting to get rare.

To my amazement, the Mosin Nagant has all but disappeared (they were cheap - so they all got bought up).

I've had no problems finding 1911s (my favorite). Of course, they're below the 10 round limit.

If you think you need a repeater rifle - look to a Ruger (44 mag) or Rossi (44, or 357) lever action.
They're still fairly easy to find.

I just located a Rossi r92 in 45LC for a friend (12 round capacity --- won't be around long)

Big challenge from what I can see is ammo. However - 45LC has a benefit ---- it's used for handguns as well as rifles.

I recommend Hornady's leverevolution ammo.

I might be wrong - but I think the powers that be are more interested in ammo control.
(the shortage has more to do with speculation than control, right now)

I agree, it's going to be easier to regulate and tax the heck out of ammo. And like you said .223 ammo is nowhere to be found. I may sell my AR while they are hot and get something with cheaper ammo.
