Any stores emptied near you?

Better watch what you say @oldawg, I heard steel shot is going to be banned and if you have more then 1000 marbles you can be charged as a domestic terrorist, oh and don't even have more then 10 in your pocket at one time

 

Dang it Scrapman are you telling me that I now have to take my marble stash fishing with me in my LAST almost floatable boat? OH WOE what are us poor unarmed sheep to do?GLOOM,DESPAIR,AND AGONY ON ME!

 

"The Halter takes about 2,000 grains of black powder, some wadding, and two pounds of lead BBs."

 

Why do those clips make me think of the thread about drones?

 

Yes, but where would you find a pond at the right angle to the sky?

 

Thinking more along the lines of the twin .50 mounts we had on our pibbers.

 

Don't know the term pibbers. (of course, they could be mounted like swivel guns)

 

Went to wally world this afternoon for S&G
9mm, .223 and 12Ga. out.
Big dent in the .40s&w
only .22LR are thunderbolts. All packages over 50rds gone.

but, the rest of looks normal.
plenty of .38/.357, .44mag, .45acp and rifle rounds (except the .223)

So YMWV depending on your location.

Wally world here only sells bp rifles so i can't comment on long guns.

 

Rural King (like Tractor Supply) has ammo out the wazoo. buckets of 1400 .22 long rifle stacked solid on the shelves. Gander Mountain, is doing a brisk business as of last night, but I saw no obvious shortages. I did not make it back to the gun shelves, and racks, but the odd thing was several people were buying just gift cards.

 

that's not odd, it's Christmas. Lots of people give gift cards.

 

Gift cards are not a panic buy, unless the problem is to find any gift that fits. They were not buying to have on hand or stock-piled, but expecting the cards to be able to buy what they want later. So, the idea of a ban, did not figure into the purchase.

 

Yahoo had a news story today that Brownells sold out of three years worth of high cap mags in a day.

 

Obummer wants to be compared to Lincoln, he will be when the second civil war starts.

 

i read somewhere, that a gunshop in NC did over 1 million in business in one day.

 

the gunshop i frequent here, said business is great, but he's worried about whats going to happen a year from now, if they pass a ban... he said it will probably mean the end of his business

 

the burn of reentry, before the sudden concrete poisoning. Flare hot and bright, then crater.

 

Time to start building our own!

 

Went to wally word yesterday..... I bought the last of the .22WMR and .22 shorts. They had no buck shot, only steel and bird shot. The clerk said they had more on order but the warehouse was empty also. Local gun shop only high value ammunition left.

 

our local gun store is out of all types of assault weapons only have bolt actions in big calibre
