Well*** Should I go buy all the AR -types rifles..

You probably ought to start saving some money back.

Why? Money will be worthless as QE infinity continues......

Why would you WANT to sink a lot of money into guns they want to take away?

That... seems odd.

I would rather they confiscate 1 AR15 than 5. I would rather keep the extra 4 grand eh?

Doubt they would try to take any away, just pass a law that no new one's can be made or sold. Like the last Clinton "assault weapon" ban. Same with high cap mags. Think PRE-BAN

I agree. I don't think they will be coming around collecting up all of the weapons. They will BAN, BAN, BAN.

Like I said in another thread. To confiscate they will first have to find all the guns which means registration. If they don't do some sort of forced registration, then banning manufacture and sale of them is what is most likely what will happen.

If you don't own an "assault weapon" that you know you can't live without, I'd invest now (although prices will be high).

Whether hi-cap mags will also be banned is a toss up imo.

I predict no new gun laws, bans or restrictions in the next 4 years. Irrational fear and profiteering from the fear will cause the prices to go up.

The 1994 AWB was a joke and both parties know it. To go back down that path would ridiculous. If anything happens, it won't be the same old song and dance. The current administration has bigger issues to worry about and they don't have the political muscle to push a gun ban through.

By all means, ignore me and panic buy though. As long as enough people do, you can be gouged on prices.

This is the worst time to buy! Obama won, the price is going to skyrocket at the next show in January

 

[STK]

It is a catch 22. Get them while you can and pay the high prices or wait for the prices to come back down and possibly not be able to get it at all.

 

[ae168504]

If people refuse to pay the price gouging increases then the demand wont be there to award the price increases. We are our own worst enemies in this aspect and Obama is best gun salesman ever.

Why? Saving money is a horrible idea... Inflation is eclipsing interest earned on savings accounts by a large margin and considering we stand on the cliff of an economical disaster... liquidating your assets might be a huge mistake.

People think its a good idea to invest in Silver and Gold because they think its a "safe" currency... that may be the case, but I can almost GUARANTEE that investing in firearms is a relatively safe place to put your money.

Unless nothing happens. My pre-ban AR-15 dropped in value $400 in 2005.
Like any investment, there is no sure thing. The best investor would have bought hi cap pistols and assault rifles months ago and will sell them this winter for a markup. That person was gambling that Obama would win.
