Run on Guns & Ammo?

I know some believe the breath of the sweet baby Jesus himself moved that round away from Trump's skull, and that he will win in a landslide.

Except I remember when that didn't happen like everyone said it would in 2020...

So, considering what we know about fear of a Democratic leader does, will there be a Gun/Ammo run coming up to or right after the election if Kamala wins?

I was seriously mildy somewhat imagining this as a possible excuse to run out and buy:

2000rd 9mm
1000rd 7.62x39
Some .38/.357
And some other calibers...

And maybe....

A 20g Shockwave (and ammo)
A Tisa's 1911
An Underfolder AK
An a 9mm PCC...
a .357 2" of some sort

IF you were to Panic - just a little, what might you jump on???

I'm stocked up on needs and rising prices won't entice me to buy wants. If things get scarce again, I'll just shoot what I have and wait it out.

I think if the unthinkable happens and Airhead Harris gets in and the Dems hold onto the senate, there will be problems.

Having said that, I have a Rough Rider 22 revolver, a box of shells, a whistle and an old can of bear spray so I'm good.

So you hand the bear spray to the Dems chasing you, then use the 22 to hit them in the foot leaving them for the bear and you to run away :lol: :lol: :lol:

On the other hand...If Trump gets elected every nutjob and radical org will take to the streets to burn down the cities. Might have to add a sling shot to my armory. ;)

Hopefully I will be moved to the woods house by next summer. That's the goal anyway.

Taking to the streets to burn down is the real play.

You need to make the population BEG to take the guns. Crime run amok is just the recipe...

If you do then you need to talk to Joe (Ghost). He's the expert in all things slingshot!

A slingshot is great weapon to have, and ammo is as close as the nearest rock.

Ask birds in the woods where I grew up, or the occassional squirrel. Oh - wait, they can't answer. They are DEAD.
