This Is Why I Make My Own
Not only has the Obama election sent gun sales through the roof, but ammunition is also being bought up at record rates. So quickly is it selling that there are reports of ammunition shortages. I'm pretty much set in that arena, at least for long guns, would need to make a run to the manly sporting goods store (not REI) to be set for making my own pistol ammunition.
My question is why are guns and ammunition selling so rapidly since the Obama election?
Here are the possibilities, as I see them.
1. Circumspect guys and girls are getting them before they are banned or registration required.
2. Circumspect guys and girls are getting them because they foresee an ever decreasing economy leading to the breakdown of social order.
3. Circumspect guys and girls are getting them because they foresee a creeping socialist totalitarianism here and want to have the means to resist.
All the news articles say it's reason #1. I hope it's that. Would love to hear which one you think is the main driving force.
