Always starts at tax return season - stocks simply won’t recover from that, and scarcity will start artificially driving up the price from there for those with limited foresight.
Oh well, this is the best chance I’ll probably face for offloading rifles I don’t really like as much anymore.

I think the panic could start anyday now, especially with the lying media pumping kaakaa into everyone’s head. Like last weeks headlines “The economy is doing great, so the Republicans candiates are back to square one”. That was after Obama’s Labor Dept’s trumped up a low unemployment rate.
I think the media will be reporting BO is ahead in the polls even though he might be 20 points behind, just to swing the voters that like to vote for the “winner”.
Pitiful…
But maybe it’s just me…

It started last December and will probably get worse as we near the Novemeber elections.
Speaking of the “lying media”, I saw a headline on Yahoo news the other day that read something like “Obama predicted to win upcoming election”. I can’t say I disagree with that, because there are tons of dipshits that currently wear “obama 2012” bumper stickers, but it’s too early for any media to make such a prediction. Perfect example of the liberal douchebag media pumping bullshit into the weak minded to manipulate them. This in itself probably swayed some of the couch potatoes to turn off the football game, get off their fat asses, & run out to buy guns.
The buying frenzy started last year. Stocks of everything are low.
The Gops should be making a full court press to pass National CCW but they are stupid, and in truth, really don’t like guns that much.
Right now the Gops have been painted into corner talking about birf control. God, they are stupid!
Hope for the best but prepare for the worst. Plan for 4 more years of President Food Stamp. The best you can hope for now is maintaining a strong Tea Party presence in the Congress.
Oh, and Ron Paul is crazy and unelectable.
Is there a buying frenzy on now? I’d say so.
What’s the current quoted lead time for a BCM rifle? Anybody know? Are they still not taking new orders?
I ask that rhetorically, but it shows that people are out buying gun-related stuff now while they can. When I bought mine there was no supply problem whatsoever.
For a while I was getting e-mail alerts from Aim Surplus on ammo availability, and more often than not they would be sold out before I got my order in.
Buy now, Gentlemen. Gas prices will probably derail some of the panic, but then again, they could fuel more panic as well. Wait until late summer/early fall when you may be SOL for having waited.
I’ve been telling a lot of newly interested prospective gun buyers that the time to buy is now.
If you have the funds, why wait?
public support for gun control is at an all time low. I can also pretty much guarantee you obama is getting a second term. That said congress is mostly on our side.
still, i’m sure there will be panic buying. I’m hopefully going to pick up at least 5000 primers before things go full retard. I’m pretty set on evil guns and big magazines for now. :o
Just entered a contract to buy a high capacity semi-automatic, folding stock rifle. What is everyone else buying in anticipation of the panic?
