Why are gun sales through the roof?
Why is there still an overwhelming rush on guns, specifically pocket guns and assault rifles? We simply can't keep them in stock, and can't find them (or ammo) from any of our suppliers(bungs). I have a waiting list of over 150 PRE-PAID (cash) Ruger LCPs, yet I have only had 51 boxes of ammo for them in the past 6 months (and only 100 of the guns).

“Do you or any members of your immediate family own a gun? If so, provide complete ownership and registration information. Has the registration ever lapsed? Please also describe how and by whom it is used and whether it has been the cause of any personal injuries or property damage.” Question No. 59 on a 63-question list required to be fill out by ALL potential Obama appointees.
"It's not surprising they get bitter," he said, referring to decades of constrained economic opportunities. "They cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations." Barrack Obama
"Let’s be honest. Mr. Keyes does not believe in common gun control measures like the assault weapons bill. Mr. Keyes does not believe in any limits from what I can tell with respect to the possession of guns, including assault weapons that have only one purpose, to kill people. I think it is a scandal that this president did not authorize a renewal of the assault weapons ban." Barrack Obama
Obama had proposed to make it a felony for a gun owner whose firearm was stolen from his residence which causes harm to another person if that weapon was not securely stored in that home.
Obama, when he was on the board of the Joyce Foundation oversaw the distribution of millions of dollars to gun ban groups.
“I’m the guy that originally wrote the assault weapons ban that became law. Then we got defeated. Then Diane Feinstein sent to town on it and did a great job.” – Joe Biden

"My first priority will be to reinstate the assault weapons ban as soon as I take office. Within 90 days, we will go back after kitchen table dealers, and work to end the gun show and internet sales loopholes. In the first year, I intend to work with Congress on a national no carry law, 1 gun a month purchase limits, and bans on all semi-automatic guns." -Barack Obama
"I am consistently on record and will continue to be on record as opposing concealed carry."
THAT'S why.

Because Obama, Hillary and EVERY ONE OF THEIR ADVISORS, as well as most of the majority party in both houses of Congress, favor and/or HAVE ATTEMPTED efforts to ban ammunition and various, arbitrarily-defined firearms.
We can read the writing on the wall, and we all know that any totalitarian government must begin with a disarmed people.

Preparation has begun to reduce the number of Liberals, Socialists and Communists in America.

Because gun-hating liberals are back with the same desire to undermine our freedoms.

Well, we've got someone with the initials BHO, who holds the most liberal voting record in the senate ever, deciding the definition of our liberties and freedoms everyday. That's reason enough for me

Because the people who profit from guns are tricking people into buying them.
Just another typical republican scam just like all the ads on fox selling gold.
IF GOLD IS GOING TO SKYROCKET IN VALUE, WHY AREN'T THESE COMPANIES KEEPING IT?
