Why is everyone buying guns all of a sudden?
Like seriously people that have never had guns buying them now.

To have them.
With the new administration coming in, there is a strong possibility of more / stricter gun laws in the future.
You can buy an AR15 today. Maybe not next year.
My husband and I own quite a few guns as it is... including an AR-15.
We've noticed that the mindless panic is sending people on a mission to purchase their AR-15 while they still can. I know 5 people right now that are waiting for theirs to be built. 3 of the 5 have no business owning one. That's the part that scares me a little.
I don't believe the laws are going to change overnight... everyone seems to think so. I think he's got bigger issues to deal with.
Obama is going to take them all away, so why bother spending the money to buy them legally and get them registered?
If you buy the ones that have their numbers shaved, and come from the back of a caddy then uncle sam won't know you own it and isn't going to storm your compound on Jan 21.
How did you know about my compound?

Things I have read show Obahma wanting to ban auto-riffles but not much else. From what I have seen he supports the second amendment. Has anyone seen real proof that he's going to be a "gun banner"? I may have missed some crucial info so fill me in if you have more details PLZ.
Ok, im a big fan of guns, but im lost on why anyone wants an assault rifle.
Barring a zombie apocalypse, im pretty sure I can defend myself quite nicely with a Glock 22 or a GP6. And probably more accurately.
They have one purpose, (Assault Rifles) to mow down as many people as possible at one time.
I dont want them banned, I just dont see the need.

I dunno man. Obama's cheeks look awefully sunken. He could be the zombie overlord, just setting them all up for the Christmas feast :panic:

It's because the Second Amendment to the US Constitution isn't about "hunting".:whistle:

Why not?
You can safely get from piont A to point B in a Toyota Corolla, why would you want a 200mph Murcialago?
You pay too much to turn gasoline into noise but not speed on a Vespa, why choose a Harley?
Not every acquisition has to be perfectly justifiable.
Toys are fun.

Obama has voted for every piece of legislation against guns and ammo. Joe Biden was instrumental in getting the "assault rifle" ban passed and helped author it. He has also supported every bill against your right to defend yourself. The Democratic party is all about control. If they get your guns, they control you.

Apoc, every semi-auto pistol is also a target for the Liberals. Any weapon that is designed for self defense is always first on the list. Just like the 10 rnd mag limit that was part of the last one. After those get banned then they go after your hunting rifles that hold 5 rounds, then they go after the single shots and then they own you.
Just an asside, assault rifles are not designed to "mow down people". People trained in the use of full auto weapons know that full auto fire is designed to "suppress" the enemy and is not accurate or effective other than keeping them pinned down. And you can't buy a full auto rifle without getting the permits so 98% are probably semi-auto just like your pistols. What's the difference then?
The Liberals know that the rght to bear arms is what gave us the power to defy England and win our Independance in 1776. They know the only way to maintain control of the people is to disarm them.
It's not guns that kill people any more than its pencils and keyboards that misspell words.

Thanks for all the info. I'll be doing some more research you made it a heck of a lot easier for me.

The Second Amendment to the US Constitution: A well regulated Militia being necessary to the security of a free
State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be
infringed.
Would somebody be kind enough to show me anywhere in the above that said anything about duck hunting or target shooting?

I'm sorry, but I may have to shoot some crack-head breaking into my home multiple times in quick succession to stop him. I have a major problem with semi-automatics getting banned. What Obama says to get into office and what he does are two entirely different things...we shall see...

It's funny that this comes up... because just over the weekend I received this email from extended family living overseas.
Please believe me when I say that you need to get out of the country on the quick. The noose is tightening.
Get out before it's too late. I will probably not be back, but i hope i can see you all again if you come over to visit. If you decide to stay, ask yourself for whom all of the empty prison camps in America have been built for. When our new president removes the population's guns it will finally be too late.
Stay safe.

I'd imagine if we had to take up arms against our government you'd be wanting something more than a Glock...

Thank you. The founding fathers were very specific about the people having the abilitiy to defend themselves against, amongst other things, a tyranical government. Too bad our culture is so spoiled, lazy, and complacent that most of us would not even consider taking up arms in such situations...

I'd pull up to every cop I could and ask for directions to Washington DC.
