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.

Bah. Guns are too noisy anyway. I ordered a custom recurve last week.

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.
