I would imagine that the people with the foresight to keep those egg laying chickens won’t need ammunition. Also don’t believe that once any seller has met his self defense needs, that ammunition would continue to be attractive as a medium of exchange.
Part of your answer is explained by the fact that Boomers saw inflation far more intense in comparison to what people are horrified about now. Mortgage prices were in the 18% range for many of them when they came into their home purchasing age. Prices reflect long years of tighter credit and...
The only thing "revolutionary" about the Glock is that when it was released, it could be carried through airport magnetometers without being detected.
Some will get it...
You are going to see this regularly as the people hoarding ammunition pass. An acquaintance died at age 61 a few years ago, his wife sold off over 60,000 rounds, which wasn’t the whole kaboodle. There was no way he’d have had time to shoot the entire cache had he lived to 100.
The stated concern here is about a single engagement of a handful of rounds, not an infantry man’s worth of firefights during a World War. I grew up surrounded by WWII, Korea and Viet Nam vets, a number of which, but not all, experienced different levels of hearing loss. My father was a aerial...
The SAAMI Max is 52,000, but the three self defense cartridges being offered are in the “mid forties”, according to a Federal Rep at the SHOT Show.
The sound/hearing thing wasn’t a problem for over a century of armed combat through multiple wars, including house clearing operations. Way too...
Based on my experience, in real dollars, a new MKI FN HP from the mid 1980’s works out to the same MSRP as the new FN High Power today.
Whether we acknowledge it or not, the MkIII’s got to the point where they weren’t selling, so this in an attempt at a more modern design that might do better...
Kinda funny to read posts about how much better the “old” Hi Power was, you know, the one that was discontinued because no one was buying it? Crummy trigger, bad ergonomics, not enough rounds compared to modern plastic pistols, finicky HP feeding, poor sights. Suddenly the beloved old war horse...
My we assume that you don't possess a driver's license then? There is no more demeaning entity that your State Department of Motor Vehicles.
Protesting the government's poor treatment of the citizenry will be a full time job for you...
MB,
That's cool. I enjoy driving as well, an interesting way to see the country. Flying is cheaper, safer, and enjoyable as well. Going thru security is not that big of a deal.
I would add that your angst against airlines is misplaced. The FEDERAL GOVERNMENT runs the TSA and dictates...
How are you going to boycott when you already stated that you don't fly?
Airlines are carrying more passengers than ever, they aren't profitable due to fuel and debt costs. An economic boycott over guns isn't going to get one second of coverage, or have on iota of an impact due to our anti...
I would add that it takes a certain type of person to take on that type of training. For some, the time off, the added responsibility and the comitment to stay proficient are insignificant compared to their sense of duty to protect their fellow Americans.
Pilots are a cross section of...
What is so unusual about adults having an intellectual discussion without resorting to personal attacks? I mean, this is the Internet you know! ;)
Art,
I understand what you are saying, but expressing the logic of the situation to the public that way isn't going to "fly". They will just...
Sure it does, because for those who understand more than just basic shooting, there are simple tactics that make taking that precsion shot uneccessary. Furthermore, if you are trying to pass legislation in favor of CCW carry on aircraft, such statements are harmful to your cause. A professional...
Thanks for your enthusiasm, Art.
I was talking wound ballistics, should have used that term. Shooting a hostage is bad, bad tactics, it isn't required. There are several ways to deal with that problem without killing an innocent person.
To be effective requires integrated training...
Art, not picking on you, I admire Americans who want to do something to help, who feel it is their duty to protect their country.
Your statement, well meaning exactly illustrates the problem. The vast majority of CCW holders are formally untrained. The idea of shooting through a hostage is a...
Art,
I said fares between most city pairs are cheaper, not between two uncharted, GPS co-ordinates in the middle of the desert! :D
Here is where we are disconnecting in our goals. You are looking at this as if you are going to lose anyway, so anything is better than nothing. It is a...
