Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire 75% of The Guns Bought Over Last 72 Hours Bought By First Time Gun Purchasers

>>Should make for some good buys on used guns in 6 months...........<<


That's what my friend's son told his dad, that in 6 months or so he expects that he'll be buying most of them back. I wonder how many will be trying to sell them without going thru an FFL as is required here in NY. Could be a few stupid people getting pinched. That would an advanced education where they get a nice orange gown but no diploma.

Yep. In TX, no NICS Check required of you have a LTC, which is what our old CHL is called nowadays.

I’m glad the gun and ammo retailers are getting a surge in business.

That’s amateurish unless it’s a Carbine model

The guy who bought the 30-06 for home defense was told it was a poor choice as any round shot would likely go thru the perp (if he was lucky enough to hit him) and then would go thru his house and likely end up in a neighbor's house. His reply was that he wouldn't shoot unless it was really necessary. Isn't that comforting?

ps Wouldn't you love to be his neighbor when this noob loads that thing up, while trying to figure out how to operate it from YouTube. "What's this little button thingy behind the trigger gizmo."

A perfect example of Rush Limbaugh's "Low information voter."

The Real Hawkeye: Because you have not given an opinion at all, I must ask you - what do you think is causing this.
Corona-virus is the obvious but not definitive answer.
Why buy now?
I can't figger it out.

Damn! What an idiot!

LOL. Just kidding. Could happen to anyone.

I hope you're joking. Every time someone says that, I respond to it. Must have done so three or four times this week. People are buying guns for fear of civil unrest and collapse of social order in the wake of a pandemic. What's complicated about that?

It absolutely is the virus thing. People are preparing to defend their TP stash. I was told this morning there were fist fights at our only local supermarket over TP and water. They were grabbing it as soon as it came off the truck. I also heard that rich folk from NYC are renting out B&Bs here in upstate NY thinking it's safer in the country, meanwhile likely bringing the virus up here with them. It's only going to get crazier!
