Gun store report

Not to be rude, but I was asked by a colleague why folks were going nuts buying assault rifles. So I asked what do you think an assault rifle is?

So I explained:

1. Gun types
2. Why I already have one
3. Why those who are panicked buying one are posers. They could have bought one before for the normal reasons.
4. Why the AWB was baloney - based on my knowledge of the issues and not a rant.
5. It's a Dutch tulip bulb bubble market.
 
Well, No Fear, maybe you measure your manhood by how many big guns you have to fight the big bad gubmint, but I don't. And I don't need to run out and spend money I don't have on guns I don't need. If I want an AR or AK I'll buy one next year after my tax refund. The sky is not falling. BTW I like to play video games. Sorry if that doesn't make me a real man in your eyes. I hate watching sports or Nascar or rasslin' or any of that other "manly" stuff, so I play video games. My life, not yours. Get over it.
 
Well you got one thing right and that is typically most gun dealers are not wal mart and do not high volume stock. On the flip side manufacturers will catch up in a couple of months so stay calm and stop with the chest pounding.

If you really want to help take some of these "MEN" out to go shooting your EBR's and teach them the importance of ARMS and why politicians cannot be trusted.
 
How is this an appropriate comment? It's smart to buy off the books, but it is not a measure of a man's masculinity or worth.


It's called a JOKE!!!!!

I talked to the people who make my favorite "gun" today as I wanted to make one for my nephew who is shipping out (USMC). They said they got caught off guard. They had 50,000 lowers last Wednesday and are now 100,000 backordered. They said this is unheard of in the industry. All I wanted was one lower......
 
No Fear joined last month and has 133 posts?

Also interesting that the OP had not replied to any of the comments.
Where is that bag of TROLL FOOD when you really need it? :fire:

Typical of the internt - drive by trollers!

RPCVYemen:

I don't buy stuff that ages quickly. I buy stuff that is virtually unchanged from 50 years ago(or more). Even with a product such as this, there are those fools that outsmart themselves and fall for that just in time crap.

No, I don't buy from the lowest bidder. I buy from the one that regularly gets me what I want when I want it without any additional speedy freight or rushed delivery charges. I buy from the guy that keeps an inventory of harder to find items that I like, and I don't give a dam if I'm the only one in a tri-state area that buys it. I buy from the guy that doesn't try to pawn off "made in pakistan" crap that isn't quite dimensionally correct in an american feet-and-inches world. I buy from the guy that doesn't make me travel an hour or more out of my way "to their other location" to pick up what they were supposed to have in my hand this morning. I buy from the guy that honestly tries to make up for his screwups if and when they do happen. I buy from the guy that not only knows something about the products he is selling me, He is an EXPERT in it!

In my world, "just in time" is for complete idiots. I can go to home depot for "just in time" imported crap that is perpetually out of stock and sold by a punk kid that can't chew gum and walk at the same time and does't have a clue what I'm talking about but doesn't let that stop him from telling me what to do. And I don't need to establish a business relationship with anyone at home depot to buy there.
 
I get the impression Loomis and RPCVYemen aren't talking about the same thing.



Anyway, I don't measure my manhood with how many guns I own or how I don't bow down to skirts. I measure it with a yardstick.
 
WHy aren't we? Seems like the same thing to me. "just in time" basically boils down to "we don't stock it unless it flys off the shelf faster than we can restock it".
