Americans Bought Enough Guns on Black Friday to Arm the Marine Corps

Some will die in hot pursuit
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain

    still not much of a freedom as our forefathers fought for
    have to ask permission ( back ground checks ) get licenses and register in some areas plain out lawed in many areas [:(!][:(!][:(!][:(!] yep thats a freedom [:(!]
    to me there should be no numbers to count or record " no infringement " of any kind

    I only thought about people buying guns/ammo because they were afraid if they did not get whatever they would be unable to once she took office.

    I never considered many might take the attitude they did not want something that might be banned and then have to turn it in but with Trump winning those who feel that way are now buying hence the record Black Friday call in numbers higher than any single day since they started the call in.

    Prices might hold at current levels for a while

    I agree with the thought that a gun-buying spree these days is more due to "Hurray, no confiscation!" than most other reasons.
    I may be a bit crazy - but I didn't drive myself.

    The liberals say there should be no ID required for voting because it is a right to vote. The require ID and a background to buy a gun. Some states require fingerprints. While others require all this to buy ammo. Is not gun ownership just as big a right?

    I continue to read about all the guns being sold but we must be doing something wrong cause while business has been steady it is not record setting. At the end of 2012 after Sandyhook we had people lined up buying everything we had and most stores were the same. Haven't seen anything like that since. I talk to a lot of stores across the country and they pretty much tell me the same thing. Also the special terms and reductions in price I'm offered by my distributors mean there is a lot of unsold stock in the pipe line. I don't know how these record sales keep occurring but I'm really happy for those selling the guns.Keep it up.[:)]
