So, now that Trump will be president, what am I going to do with all these extra AR's and receivers? How low well they go? [emoji6]

PSA has GI mags for $7.  Soon I'll make that throne of magazines I've been dreaming of, haha!

why is everyone worried about having extra stuff?  keep it, it's not going to expire on the shelf or anything.

Probably because they bought stuff they didn't need/want right now with money they don't have and can't realistically justify it to either themselves or their spouse now.

 

No offense to members posting on here, it's obviously a joke, but I have heard a few people before the election say to max out as many credit cards as you can and buy ARs.

I didn't panic. I am sad that I didn't wake up with hundreds of thousands of dollars in guns and ammo, but I really didn't want that.

 

We have at least four more years of the good life.

They aren't extras...just spares so you can grab another quickly.

I mostly bought things I planned to buy anyway, just sooner. Only extra stuff I bought was a few magazines in case they were outlawed, so I would have spares and a bit of extra ammo, ok maybe 2 bits of extra ammo. The last shipment of ammo that is ordered is coming Friday. :D

Well, I figuered if Hillary won I could make a small fortune and if Trump won, everyone in my family would be well armed. :)
Everyone is now well armed. I do need more AK's. Maybe Trump can get that door opened back up. A $700 WASR is just crazy. I miss converting Saiga's for dirt cheap.

My penned up needs were satisfied in mid 2013 which carried over till now. 

For the record, I didn't buy anything.  Did you hear that NSA, I didn't buy anything.

I'm a hoarder by nature, so yea I have a buttload of mags, etc, but that's ot necessarily election related.  Funny enough, the last gun I bought was a single shot 444 Marlin... not exactly on the endangered species list, lol!

I had some discretionary "gun money" squirreled away anyway, so I didn't break into the family budget. I did want to get JUST a lower receiver, figuring that would be the hardest part to get if the election went toward Hillary. Once I had that, I got nervous and started thinking, I better get that matching Upper and BCG, because those might get scarce too, but that's all I need. Then I noticed a sale on lower parts kits on PSA, and thought that was exactly what I needed for the rifle I had in mind, but I'll stop there for sure. Then my local gun shop had a sale on P-Mags for $10 OTD, and that was just too good to pass up.  Now I'm sitting on a rifle that is about 75% complete, and I'm having too much fun to stop.

Glad I just wanted to buy only a lower.

I did the same thing a couple weeks ago. That's how I ended up building a rifle on election day, lol.

Guy at royal range said they we're coming in and buying 5 lowers at a time before the election.  should be a lot of stuff pretty cheap when people need Christmas present money...

I'll be here to help with that :)

Bite your tongue, there is no such thing as too many guns.

That's how almost every build starts, I think.

I went into one of my local Gun Shops today and circled through the store twice.  I didn't find anything I needed or didn't already have.  I left without buying anything.  What a bummer. :(
