Now that Satan himself has gotten elected, how long do think it will be before we see a noticeable increase in firearms/ammo. Will there be one? Will it be substantial or minor? Will they price weapons out of Americans hands? What about ammo? Will it follw the same trend?
Prices have already increased. People went into a panic when he got elected.

Hopefully firearms don't go up before I get my Five-Seven and the rest of the parts I need for my Ar. I am slowly buying ammo..Ammo is always going up. But hopefully it doesnt get taxed by Osama

Thats probably what will delay the purchase of my new gun, idiots stocking up like their going to war tomorrow in their back yard.
....I am slowly buying ammo..Ammo is always going up......
For the past 3 years, ammo prices have increased to about double or sometimes triple of what they were. Ammo manufacturers were saying it was because of an increase in the cost of raw materials: ie lead, copper, etc. Surplus suppliers were saying it was the demand for cheap ammo that drove their prices up. Now that raw materials have come down, I was predicting the lowering of prices for 2009, as I started to see ammo prices heading downward in the past 3 months. Suddenly, as if it was a surprise to everyone, Obama gets elected and now everything is going up because of the spike in demand. As a manufacturer facing the possibility of another AWB or an ammo tax or cost prohibitive legislation of mandating micro stamping or micro tags, you would probably want to increase your margins and milk what ever you can until that happens. Sad.
