Interesting development right after Vista being sold to a Czech outfit. Oh well, one more thing to add to the pile.

How much of a market share does this ban cost our ammo and gun manufacturers, thereby weakening them financially?

If it affects anything it will be ammo cost and availability more than it will guns.

Which firearms does the US manufacture for export to begin with? FN and Sig have major manufacturing plants here but what percentage of that is US based for FN?

FN overseas contracts will be supplied from overseas manufacturing plants.

I was stationed in Germany from 2005 to 2008. I shopped at Frankonia and a number of other shops. It made me grateful for the blue box Federal ammo when it would appear at the Rod & Gun Club for $25 per box. I started reloading in 2006 and quickly learned to cherish every grain of powder. Average prices for most common powders were $50 per pound.

Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Give a man a welfare check, a forty ounce malt liquor, a crack pipe, an Obama phone, free health insurance. and some Air Jordan's and he votes Democrat for a lifetime.

To implement the UN Arms Treaty without having it ratified by the US Senate.

Getting geared up for Another "Big One" .
Personally I feel like like it has already started .

The snowball will get bigger as it rolls downhill.

I also think we will not be spared on our on shores this go round. Lots of who knows what has crossed the southern border.
Keep yer' head on a swivel. Gonna get ugly in the next couple of years.
Not sure what the tipping point will be though. Israel, and Iran or Chinks and Taiwan. Seems the chunks are waiting on us to get weaker and committed elsewhere to jump on Tiawan.

Hopefully I'm wrong...have been before.

Yet if you are a radical terrorist the US Government will shower you in military weapons and US dollars.


These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.

Why, Biden is doing us a solid by stopping the evil corporations from selling our schit overseas.

Leaves more for us.

Soon the shelves will be full and the prices back to normal.

Thanks Joe.

To increase cost in the short term and to further a “new normal” showing US citizens and industry who is in control in the long term.

Normalize an overseas war in which we’re not technically a part of as an excuse to jerk around domestic manufacturers of guns and ammo. So that they can do 10x down the road when there’s another minor war that we’re directly involved in.

Is having 50k primers and 40k 22 RF considered hoarding?

No, that would be considered bragging.

What's this going to do for black friday deals?

Damn it I shot my new Tikka 308 yesterday and the Norma Whitetail 150 gr shot a 3 shot group touching at 100 yards. I want to buy more. Do I do it now or wait till they go on sale?

Opinions please, Damnit.
