Okay, just so we are clear…
It’s perfectly acceptable that our Politician’s have Armed Security at their Children’s Schools. But if you or the NRA expect the same thing, you are an extremist and are delusional.
Got that?
It’s for your own good… THEY know what’s best.
Christmas Eve, I sold an interesting gun… A BFR in .45-70.
Then I took a long soak in a Jacuzzi, and now I’m watching a Firefly Marathon. So I’m having a great day. My boys and bride are living it up too. Pizza, games, having fun…
Lucid sent me two new optics to review. The first is the Third generation of the HD7 red dot. This one in Flat Dark Earth.
Initial impression is good. I love the original HD7, and I am seeing an improvement in the Gen 3.
The new other optic is the new L5 rifle scope. This is the 6.5-20X50, with a 30mm tube, side parallax focus, and a nice ballistic drop/hold over reticle. Again, initial impression is positive. I like the L5 reticle and am a huge fan of hold over reticles anyway. So I’m digging this scope so far. Clarity and Brightness seem on point.
I’m looking forward to testing both of these optics on top of Crusader built guns.
Evidently according to the Liberal Media, the font of all evil is a high capacity magazine.
A magazine, high capacity or otherwise, is a box with a spring in it. They are simple to make… stamped sheet metal or injection molded plastic. The technology behind the “Magazine” is a couple hundred years old. We use it in firearms and Pez candy dispensers.
The hottest gun selling now is of course, the AR. We’ve sold hundreds of every kind, as many as we could get our hands on. People have been buying them like crazy. We are now completely sold out. And we sold over 620 magazines… after limiting people to 3 each. This is the craziest gun buying rush I’ve ever seen. And the demand is not easing off.
If these sales were because of a spike in popularity… because of Christmas as everyone wants an AR because they are fun to shoot, and awesome to have… This would be great. This would be a season to remember. I’d be loving this. But that’s not what’s been happening. People are buying rifles like this because they are afraid of a possible ban and they are afraid of the Government. That puts a sour taste in my mouth for all this.
This is not just here locally… this is Nation Wide. I even had reporters call me at work and home. Here’s one report.
As I said in the article, normally I’d be selling deer rifles, shotguns, and the like. Now it’s all Concealed Carry type guns and fighting rifles. All AR’s and AK’s are gone and all full capacity magazines. This isn’t what normally flies this time of year.
It seems that the cowardly folks at KSL.com have killed off their Firearms Sales sections of their classifieds.
This wasn’t in reaction to the shooting in CT. They have thought about doing this for some times, even floating polls about doing it. Now they have done it, using CT as an excuse to do what they have wanted to do.
I can sell a Hammer… or a Knife… hell, even a sword… on KSL. But a gun? Even as a Dealer, where all ATF rules apply… is not allowed.
I’m done with KSL.com. Throwing all of us honest, law abiding gun owners under the bus… This is shameful. KSL, you are pathetic.
I’ve never seen gun-sales like today. It’s been busy since Black Friday, and really busy all week. But I’ve never seen it like today. We broke records. We completely sold out of all AR rifles. They are gone. Done.
We have more on order, but I don’t think we will ever have the AR stockpile like we had before… They are going to trickle in and be sold before they hit the shelves.
All of our 5.56mm/.223 ammo in 50 round packs or larger is all gone as well.
I still have .223 Remington in 20 round boxes… your Varmageddon, V-Max and Ballistic Silvertips, and that’s it.
I’ve never seen anything like this.
Edit: To give you guys an idea of the volume I’m talking about… When it comes to inventory, Basin Sports is one of the biggest new gun dealers not just in the state of Utah, but in the western states. We had one hell of an inventory of tactical rifles. Yeah… they are all gone now.
Make a classic Philly Cheesesteak.
Stuff in yellow banana peppers, olives, and mushrooms.
Throw on some bacon. None of that Canadian shit.
Dredge that in beer-batter made with Amber Boch, or Shock Top.
Deep fry till GBD.
Serve with a Gatorbull to wash it down.
Dick’s Sporting Goods is pulling semi auto rifle sales.
Cheaper Than Dirt is suspending online gun sales, and have increased their prices to stupid levels. A P-Mag is now $59.99. Those price-gouging bastards!
I encourage everyone to give a big middle finger to Dick’s and CTD.
