Kudos to the Gun Owners of Indiana....

We were busy today, but not as busy as I expected we'd be, and NOTHING like we were after Election Day 4 years ago. However, I expect we will have a REALLY good weekend.

In talking with our distributors today, it is fairly clear that items that would be likely prospects for a future ban (semi-auto military style rifles, parts/receivers for same, and magazines) will get harder to come by and/or more expensive in the near term. One distributor had 97,000 PMAGs in inventory this morning; by the time our rep called me this afternoon, they were down to 51 (as in 50 +1). I have done some additional ordering in anticipation of increased demand, but I refused to do business with any distributors whose prices were any higher than they were on the same items last week.

Hopefully any price-gouging and panic buying that occurs will be minimal and short-lived.

I'm not sure which is worse, the sheeple that blindly voted for OBummer or the sheeple that go out and panic buy everything. He's got a lot more important things to worry about right now than guns.

Doesn't mean that he's taking his off guns though. He's already repeated that he supports the UN small-arms treaty. Don't forget that he's shown his contempt for the rule of law where firearms are concerned. He's issued an exec order to register rifles in S. border states--Never mind what congress said; and then there's operation "fast and assinine". He'll do anything, the only question is when.

Prices at the gunshow today were normal, so that's a good sign.

Everyone and their brother seems to be out of large pistol primers though.

 

[Mr Evilwrench]

He has enough czars and minions to delegate all those issues to. It'll be an avalanche of outrages even worse than 2009, and nobody will be able to catch up to one before the next one piles on. It'll be "I want to do this, that, and the other, now you guys go make it happen", and everything like the XOs released on Friday afternoons so nobody notices. I'm afraid it may well not get better; buy what you need where you can find it, as you can afford it.

Entry level AK's are sold out everywhere online. I'm thinking WASR's and AMD-65s here. And what is in stock has already risen... Most entry level AKs are now +$600 (thats if they are in stock).

The unconverted Saiga 7.62x39 is the cheapest deal now at $460, before shipping or fees.

I was in Wal-Mart today looking for bulk .22 rounds. I bought the last 555 count box they had. The clerk said 2 days ago there were 32 boxes on the shelf. This was in Greenville, Ohio.

In the Reuters post it clearly states...

"U.S. officials have acknowledged privately that the treaty under discussion would have no effect on domestic gun sales and ownership because it would apply only to exports."

I don't see a problem with that.

Plenty at the Tell City Wal-mart. They were out of a few of the more popular hunting rounds but then it was opening day of deer season in Ky. Lots of 9mm, .40, .45, 5.56, and 7.62x39. No, I didn't deplete it any.

 

[Drakkule]

Picked up 2 new to me pistols, and 600 rds. of 5.56, but i traded a M17S for the handguns, and the ammo was cheap. No panic here, i have all i need.
