This thread is not really meant for shooters, but rather those that consider themselves collectors.
I wanted to get a feeling what firearms collectors are planning on doing over the next year or so regarding firearm purchases. I view this as similiar to the time before the NFA Reagan ban & the pre-Klinton ban, where we have an opportunity to either make money or loose money on our firearms holdings. I want to look at this as an economic question, rather than a emotional 2nd admendment question.
Although I am sure that shooters would buy as much ammo, hi-cap mags and Klinton ban items as possible, I am kind of concerned that the economic investment (yes, I know guns are not an investment) could be easily wiped for collectors. For example, they can ban you transferring your existing items. Or they could force you to 'inert' your collectables - which in my view ruines the 'hobby'.
So collectors, what are you doing with your hard earned money for the next year or so?
