I spoke with my buddy who owns a gun store and he says he is selling a record number of guns and ammo this month. He sold 84 guns Saturday alone. I was wondering if the rush is on all over the country?

[rrmont]

It's becuase of our new President and the laws that he wants to change.

[rrmont]

Hit enter and wasn't done yet. From what I hear the rush is on every where. I know it sure is here in the Texas panhandle.

I can say that in Alabama at a recent gun show, any guns with "assault rifle" overtones were selling like nobody's business. Chinese MAK-9Os and Russian semi-auto AKs were over $800. (I paid $100 for the Chinese version in excellent condition years ago.) Yugoslav SKS rifles were bumping $300. The only military rifle that does not seem to have benefited from the price run-up is the lowly Mosin Nagant. The long-barreled variant of this old warhorse is still selling for $119 including the bayonet.

All except for Taxachusetts, the only state where you can't buy anything because the state overtaxes everything.

It's on like Donkey Kong in Oregon. At the gun show in Portland a couple months back, The assault rifle salesmen had to restock before the first day was over.

North Carolina and New York they are flying off the shelves, along with ammo. My exchange said they would be backed up for a month or two. Which sucks because I want to buy my first pistol.

[Jim in Mo]

It's true. I didn't believe it till I went shopping and saw it for myself.

[streack]

In my neck of the woods they have been selling semi-auto pistols like men on fire.

[Beekeeper]

Ammo, components and firearms or all types are flying off the shelves in Georgia.

[buckhunter]

Just realized my question does not say what state I'm from. I'm in Ohio.

[alabamahunter]

Everyone is worried about what Osama... I mean Obama is going to do in the way of legaslation involving gun control.

[kolbster]

the last 2 gun shows i have been to i havent even been able to get close to the tables there have been so many people.

[Christian Emter]

Yes because Obama is threatineng to take all our guns and ammo away so every one is stalking up. Espacially assalt rifles.
