How have you reacted personally? Bought guns? Mags? Ammo?

[flyanything]

Nope. Haven't bought or sold. I figure by the time this all blows over I'll be needing some more ammo though. I'll be shooting as normal.

[mikegideon]

I probably won't run out before Obama is gone.

[Beltaine]

I was already planning on getting a lower after Christmas, this just moved my timetable up.

 

I managed to get a lower, and 3 PMAGs. That's good enough for my personal use. I'm not going to be a scalper.

 

I'm losing hope that I'll ever be able to get enough parts to turn my lower into something that will shoot.

My bro-in-law and I were planning on building new ARs over the next month, but now we can't even find parts kits. We bought our receivers, 2 mags, and I bought 1 box of .40, but that's it. I'm not a panic buyer, I'd just like to be able to finish my friggin AR. :(

Would you be interested in some puppies and ranbows instead? :)

Well the bad news, was on the boat the other day, it flipped and all my firearms sank into the river.

So I am in the market for a few BB guns, any idears?

I have one of these.

Are they "assault" rainbows?!

well this week i bought 6 skids of primers and 5 skids of ammo

i have not raised any prices yet and will hold all prices till the first of the year

[rugerla1]

Went in Academy in Smyrna just to see the status of AR's and ammo. Not one AR15 or AR10 and only a small amount of .223 and they were the red tip varmit rounds. So basically what I expected to see. Gun shelf is very bare!

[221 Fireball]

All I can say is it's a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS for arms and ammo manufacturers alike. How many companies wouldn't love to empty out their stock at year's end. Talk about year end profits! I'd just as soon see them roll in the big dough than a bunch of overseas electronic manufacturers though, so good for them  :)

 

I did my panic buy about four years ago. Wasn't necessary to restock this go round, but for those who did, feel great that you helped support AMERICAN jobs.

 

In fact, I do believe Prez Obama owes some kudos to American gun owners for the last minute economy boost!

[Lumber_Jack]

I bought 6 Kies metal 30 rounders online Wednesday. Then I went into Nashville Armory and they had a box full of Pmags. I only bought 4, but could have bought 50. I decided to leave some for others.

[Guest 6.8 AR]

I just bought a few condiments from from some fine TGO'ers, the other day. Three in one day, as a matter of fact.

Sold one, too! Thanks to all of you guys! I'm fairly well stocked and will not look for the great bargains on the internet.

Not worth it.

[Tempest455]

I started in 2008!  :)

[TGO David]

I picked up two more mags each for my M&P 9mm and .40SW but that's about it.  I was meaning to grab more of them anyway so I went ahead and ordered them from Midway on Wednesday while they were still available.

 

I've been eying a new rifle but I refuse to pay post-CT pricing on one.  I'll either wait for a more realistic price or I'll just abstain.

[Links2k]

I purchased Sig, M&P, Glock and AR mags prior to the election. I no longer own any weapons, I just figured the mags would be nice conversation pieces. CTD scarred me for life in 2008. I won't go there again.

[Tncobra]

I have plenty of stuff so I didn't feel the need to buy anything.

Until,

Today a coworker asked if I was interested in an AR. Colt Match Target, ban rifle. 500 ball / 100 balistic tip ammo. 6 colt mags, 4/30rd, 2/10rd, 2/40rd America brand mags. Scope/rings/mount. I asked what he wanted and he said $850 for everything, said he had $800 in it new. Rifle has about 100rds through it.

I said I was interested but I wasn't going to pay him $850 for all of that. He gave me a strange look when I offered him alot more.

So here I sit with a new rifle.

[Mdunntn]

Your a better man then me lol

Panic buying? Eh, not really "panic." I did buy a Ruger Mini-30 and a couple of 20rd mags for it yesterday. Not a panic-purchase really, but I guess it was a somewhat prudent decision to add another semi-auto and "high cap" mags to the collection.

[greenego]

Just purchased six 17 round mags for Ruger SR9Cs.

[dlm37015]

its sicking a person that i sold ammo to yesterday has it on gunbroker for 2 times whar he paid for it

i know not all of you reload but i have not raised any prices yet and next week at knoxville i will have same as last show

i will have a limited amount of ammo but you have to ask for it

[LI0NSFAN]

I was able to pick up some uber cheap 10 round mags for some different guns. Hey if they ban hi cap and want you to turn them in I will still have some mags.

I highly doubt that Davids mark up is that high. He has more integrity than to mark up an item just because he can. He has always been more than fair on his prices and I assume he will stay that way.
