Me, I'm going to get an AK, probably shoot it once or twice and put away just to make sure I have one.

Same here- buying magazines, spare parts and ammo. Plus one additional AR. With aa pair of AR's, as well as a pair of SKS carbines, I'm okay for now.

Bought my first AK-47 (plus 5 magazines and a case of ammo) about 2 weeks ago. I'm waiting on my Form 1 to be approved for an SBR. AM seriously considering buying an M-16. Plus am picking up another AR-15 at the local gun shop this week. I am also considering purchasing a .22 suppressor before the end of the year.

I talked to someone at the ATF-NFA Branch last week. And they told me that they were busier than normal over the summer processing a lot of requests. Gee, I wonder why? :rolleyes:

I already have saved online carts with Midway & Brownells that are titled - "5 Nov SHTF." :eek:

Stripped lowers are what the REAL tin foil hatters are buying.

Ammo is always good to have. 40 stripped lowers is a little goofy.

Was at a rather large gunshow a couple of weeks ago. I don't know about the AKs, but the ARs were selling very well.

I went to the Ft Meyers gun show 2 weeks ago and it was crowded as hell - Long lines to get in and a lot of serious buyers - Black rifles, mags, ammo, HiCap pistols, etc were flying off the shelves (counters). Apparently a lot of people are afraid of change

because they don't understand things. the last time around, a stripped lower was worthless since it was not an "AW".

I'm selling my NM M1A's. Too expensive to feed.

Getting out of debt to my children (the only bankers from whom I would borrow.)

God! I can remember that quackery.

Retards wanted to assemble a lower, take their picture holding the newspaper or some idiotic thing, and mail the proof to themselves as some sort of mentally challenged time stamp that would prove their stripped lower was complete as of some date.

I SO don't miss the idiots at TOS. :rolleyes:
