Unless it looks like Trump will win in a landslide, you know there will be a run on everything, when will it begin?
After the 1st debate?
After the last debate?
When will the sheep figure out, "oh, crap I didn't stock up again!"

Well, I bought 8#'s of H1000 today but it was more of a wanting a consistent lot of powder than anything else. Might be the quiet before the storm but my LGS has not had the stock they have now for 5 years! The shelves are FULL...except for 8#rs of H1000.
Did a review of the usual suspects for AR Lowers and they all have stuff in stock. I've got two stripped lowers and a few uppers sitting around so won't be competing with anyone for those.
Hard to say? We've had the best gun salesman in the history of guns in the WH for 8 years now...does anyone not own an AR and 49#'s of powder at this point?

When it becomes obvious to gun owners that all is lost and Clinton will win. That the run has not started already makes me feel somewhat confident in Trump's odds.
It's about like this:
"Do you puff peters?"
"Hell no!"
"NAZI!!!"

I'll admit I picked up a couple $50 lowers last week as election insurance. Other than that I think I'm good.
They say everything happens for a reason.
For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

Hunting season will be in full swing and the manufacturers
will not have enough product to fill the panic.

I started buying a few things back in January.
Bought a little more ever since.
It would probably be a good idea to store things in 2 different locations.
Fire, theft, etc..

The actual panic will begin the day after the election. Before the election, true firearms enthusiasts will keep inventories low after having been stung in the past.
I got stung in 1994 and vowed never again. Assuming we are still allowed to own firearms in eight years, I should be set.

I started loading up in 2008 when the big primer and 22LR shortage hit
I swore then I would never be without
My grandkids will have plenty of ammo after my kids pass away because of grandpa Ted

I vacillate between more powder and needing to not just 'kind' of need placarding on my garage. I'd guess that I have about 9998 primers and 49.3#'s of powder. There might be a few grains of powder in the cushions and I KNOW there are a few primers in the carpet...more than my dad, his dad, and great grandpap shot in their combined years.
I'm not panicked. I'm calm. I'm perfectly calm.

I bought cheap, stacked it deep, back in 2007. Really don't need to buy anything now.

I've been figuring that it will start at the beginning of November.
