    I would not say they are idiots, more like freeloaders and moochers. We saw it with the sub-prime loan debacle. People buying houses that could barely afford to make the interest payment on those luxury homes. Now we are seeing folks buying toys with some money from Uncle Sugar and when the bill comes due, they will let the bank come and get it. There will probable be another program to let them walk away from their poor finical responsibility yet again.

But an election outcome will not change the labels of "traitors and alt-right bigots" that the left tag us with. The outcome only determines how much force they'll have to be able to do something about it.

    Your whole post is solid, I just want to say that I don't care what the marxists call us, I care what the Federales do about it.

    Not everyone is interested in that. A close friend of mine come to mind. And while I have a similar outlook his is more conservative.

    Im willing to raise my CC payment a little to get some more ammo. Meanwhile he makes at least 3x more than I do and will not budge on buying things. If he has 3 rounds total and ammo is now $5/round he will have 3 rounds even if he makes more than Bezo. If you ask him how will you practice he'll say he won't without a care. It's just not part of who he is. He doesn't think he needs to be John Wick to defend his house.

    Just last week I tried to get him to go half on a case of 556. After finding out it's 46 cents a round before shipping and taxes his response was F that maybe I'll just sell all of mine

    I'm not interested in buying ammo on credit, or guns for that matter.

    Yes it's probably worth it. I say that not knowing how hard or how much it actually costs to do so and in how many quantity!

    Yoni, you can put me on the 9mm list!!

    I was just in Sportsmans and saw a Colt 6920 for $1,200. If it were Friday it would be in my car. I just finished a two week Family vacation in Florida so I'm tapped out. Did get 1,000 FGGM lrg rifle primers for $27. I gotta think that was mis-marked.

    Tomorrow, we will look at what permits we need to import the ammo and sell it online.

    I am focusing on mags and gear for now, and reloading equipment for the future. I hope ammo normalizes, but I doubt it.
    I come from a family and culture where guns where outlawed and anyone with a gun was a criminal. Same for tattoos....only criminals! Anyway, majority of my family is conservative. I can only think of 2 SJWs everyone else is to one degree or another conservative. Some even own a firearm or two yet they look at me like the crazy one.

    You have how many guns? You have how much ammo? Why? You're to old to play make-believe! I try to explain and for the most part I nice about it but ultimately don't care what they think.

    Beginning of March I start getting calls and texts.... what do you think of X or how much is is for Y ammo. Where do I buy a specific brand/caliber gun. Even my parents, who always thought I was crazy for stacking ammo and guns.....and I don't have a lot... wanted to know how guns worked and how much ammo I can lend out and if that's even ok to do so

    I mean credit card. Hard to order ammo on cash. Also his point was he's not interested in paying inflated prices regarding of what's going on and doesn't really care what your argument is since society is still moving, money not spent on ammo is the same money that pays of house faster or buys a second house somewhere else....
