if you are serious just wait until the fudds have spent themselves poor and the prices go down againeven if obama was COMIN FER YER GUNZ he has other things to worry about for quite a while
12/11/2008 2:45:19 PM
I don't think he's gonna come for my guns, as in, the ones I already have.I think it's possible he bans "assault weapons", which has been done before, or places a massive tax on gun purchases.
12/11/2008 2:48:09 PM
i heard there's a 12 month minimum wait on the bushmaster cause the manufacturer cut the production down to nothing because they are scared obama will make guns so expensive that your average redneck can't afford them anymore.
12/11/2008 2:59:50 PM
haha i can buy a mini gun but i cant buy a fuckin musket. i see now.
12/11/2008 3:11:28 PM
It's always a good time to buy a gun.
12/11/2008 3:15:09 PM
With all the war, economy, healthcare, etc issues on the table, anything that Obama would do with guns is on a way-back burner. Everyone's unfounded fears has already put a massive idiot tax on guns now and the dealers are laughing to the bank. Now is a bad time to buy because prices are inflated.Obama isn't going to immediately step into office and piss everyone off by jumping off his platform.bushmaster is shit btw get something else
12/11/2008 3:16:31 PM
How in the HELL could i play Call of Duty without a gun???!!!!!

yeah I'd say wait until the panic response buyers spend themselves out, prices freaking skyrocketed as soon as he got elected and most places are on backorder for the popular thingsI have a feeling Obama is going to be a bit preoccupied with two wars and a failing economy and won't get around to pushing up a new Brady bill for a year or two, but I could be wrongbut given that nearly every cabinet/secretary/etc appointee he has picked for his team has a record of anti-gun stances and voting records or has been part of a group like the Brady Campaign, I would be shocked if he didn't move to increase regulations at some point in his presidencyHe says "I believe in common-sense gun safety laws, and I believe in the second amendment," which is fine and good but there is a lot of flexibility in what his opinion of 'common-sense' is. With a vague nebulous term like that it could mean anything from just a ban on 'assault' weapons down to citizens only being allowed to own a single-shot, bolt action .22 rifle as an extreme example. We just don't know.
12/11/2008 3:26:20 PM
Guns are Obama's solution to the economy! Everybody buy one and then one more for their friend for Christmas.
12/11/2008 3:26:22 PM
You dont have to have any sort of permit for a handgun correct? Just the waiting period.
12/11/2008 3:31:59 PM

you guys should refer to the fumbler gun thread in the lounge for laws and whatnot.... before misinformation gets tossed around like a big blonde's tits
12/11/2008 4:45:50 PM
Hold out as long as you can to get an m4. The legislation won't be passed in a day, you'll have a little warning. ar-15's are cool but m4's are where its at!
12/11/2008 5:03:43 PM
I'm glad I got my Barrett M82A1 during Bush's presidency
12/11/2008 5:05:40 PM
Wish I had the money for an AR
12/11/2008 5:29:00 PM
You can get them new for ~750
12/11/2008 5:29:55 PM
I need to make a few more investments before I can spend the money on it.

it is the stupidity of people that is driving up gun costs and slowing production. like many have mentioned, i don't think gun regulations are anywhere near a top priority at this point in time. seems best to wait it out but who knows when people will stop freaking out.
12/11/2008 10:08:58 PM
12/12/2008 12:08:38 AM
what do you mean now. It's always a great time to purchase an assault weapon.This rule also applies to ammo.
12/12/2008 12:11:44 AM
could it be that gun collectors and enthusiasts, just like all other breeds of consumers, will jump on any excuse to buy the things they like even if they can't really afford it? just like a woman will buy new shoes for whatever reason, or I'll buy new tools. It doesn't have to be a good excuse, just enough to convince themselves to do what they want to do.
12/12/2008 1:11:48 AM
I never thought about getting a gun before. but i better go ahead and get me 2 pistols and a shot gun just incase i can't get them later...2 months laterman my money is looking a bit short... i guess i can sell these guns... they havent' been loaded since i got them...2 months laterman shot from gun bought off craigslist.
12/12/2008 1:27:20 AM
^are you trying to say it's the original purchasers fault someone got shot?
12/12/2008 1:50:49 AM
Except you can't buy and sell guns on CL.

An armed society is a polite society. Manners are good when one may have to back up his acts with his life.
12/12/2008 7:10:15 AM
^ peoples behavior on the internet is a good counterexample for that
12/12/2008 5:38:26 PM
