I thought Bass Pro Shop was a fishing shop. Do americans kill fish too with guns, apart from land living creatures?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 32129936


Bass Pro Shop is a sporting goods store--an experience actually. Very cool place to visit as is Cabela's.

OK, thanks. I'll visit those shops for sure, when I have bought my US citizenship.

I'll need a few guns in Alaska.

Good luck to you brother, and you may want to hurry because we're almost out of time here before shit buries the fan.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 32150125


Thanks man, I now understand the Fed buys up all the guns and ammo. Well I have at least a crossbow with an effective range of 200m. Good for silent hunting.

Stay safe, and hopefully Alaska will stay quiet.

Good post, OP. Thanks for the info.

Of course, that's what they want...civil unrest.

Want to add that there was a line of people waiting behind each of the six "background check" terminals. I've never seen anything like it.

rural nevada. not a place where you need to GO GET ONE NOW because everyone already has 4, or 10. Local shop- out of black guns, pretty much period. most revolvers gone. most of the shotguns except the super high end game guns gone.

ammo is ridiculous. next to nothing available. yay for me, I reload and have enough to weather the storm.

i feel sorta sorry for the people resorting to a single 1940s mosin nagant to keep from having no firearms at all, but it's not that bad a rifle to shoot.

Re: View From Cabaela's & Bass Pro Shop--WOW Getting Real Folks!!!
I was in Bass Pro last night. Lots of guns, not much ammo. There was not a 9 or 22 round in the store. They had a couple of boxes of 45 and a fair amount of 38. They said they are getting deliveries but it's gone as soon as they get it.

Even accessories were getting low. Only a couple of mag loaders on the shelf. I didn't check for cleaning supplies either.

Then I started talking to some guy who told me that he and his buddies were spending the weekend in their RV on a ammo finding mission. They drove to Texas from Louisiana hitting all the ammo stores along the way. He said it was slim pickins and most places are totally out of 9 and 22.

You know its getting real when people are driving around in RV's loading up!
 Quoting: CowgirlK


There was a terrible problem finding ammunition when it was apparent Obama was going to get elected. I can remember going around to buy a box here or there(because that's all you could find), pallets coming in and not being stocked on the shelf, and immediately people scarfing up many boxes. It took awhile to find ammunition regularly then and for them to catch up, and lots of specialty stuff was on backorder.

take this how you wish, if obammy and friends try implement anything along the lines on confiscation. It does not take a genius to see the outcome> The only real safe outcome would be a military take over of office, and i mean safe for the populace.

This holds true in MD also. Local gun stores are sold out of everything. I went to a gun show today and the few AR/M4 type rifles I actually saw where $3k or more. Very few new handguns but there were some used ones. I didn't see 1 .45 in the whole place though. Ammo prices were high but they did have it. This is ridiculous to put it mildly.

Same here in West Virginia. Stores have no more handguns or rifles except for the low caliber. Everyone is on a wait list to buy guns. Ammo is running low. Have you checked out Sportsman Guide. Back order on most types of ammo, some up tp July! Unbelieveable. Do you suppose this was Obama's way of jump starting the economy? Sure is a lot of spending going on if you can find the gun or ammo. Lol.

If you send the pics from your phone to your email then save them onto your computer, you can edit them with this program. I do it this way a lot.

Just checked, you can blur the parts of a picture easy with that program.

They're really trying to clamp down on private sales too. I fully expect issues or more hoops to jump through and issues with baiting owners who sell guns this way and people not carefully checking the folks out purchasing the gun. You know, a complete set up from the get go.

I bet they'll do that with reloaders. I used to shoot so much that I bought mostly reloaded ammunition, now I wonder if they'll target them more.

Save your brass folks. You might need it.

I was in the local Walmart today here in Ohio. They had quite a few bolt/lever rifles and pump shotguns in the display case. If you own an AR buy a scoped 308 bolt gun and get good with it.....

One store Saturday was looking very bear, the store was basically empty but the firearms counter was packed. Good 45 minutes just to get a clerk. Another store was packed but they had about 10 working the counter. No Ar's in site, they were either sold out or complying with the Mayors request to remove them. Watch the ammo, huge spike in prices.

The mayor is a fascist control freak. Deport him to China - they aren't fascist there, but certainly control freaks.

Something else I wanted to add..I spent a lot of time talking to people in Bass Pro last night. This is how they think everything will come down with legislation.

People will have to get some sort of an ID in order to buy ammo. To get the ID you will have to be finger printed and list the types of guns you own on the application. Then you will only be allowed to buy X amount of ammo per year for each gun listed on your ID.

If they do that, next shortage will be primers, powder and brass. Better stock up now.

You're right. They also talked about putting serial numbers on ever bullet. You can imagine the cost for doing that. Then people buy it with the credit/debit cards and so you know who owns precisely each bullet. They'd match up boxes with credit information at the register.

Re: View From Cabaela's & Bass Pro Shop--WOW Getting Real Folks!!!
I don't know how best to proceed with my first gun purchase. In December I made my selection, the owner did the over the phone check, and a few days later he said there is a hold up with my approval of said purchase. I went back to the store a week later and still no response from the "approvers". He told me he could sell it to me "conditionally". That is, on condition that it comes back okay and if not, someone would come for the gun. I declined that offer.

I do not know what the problem is. Store owner says sometimes that a name could be somehow mixed up or confused with a similar name in computer.

Does anyone know what I should do? Wouldn't it be a normal procedure to just run it again? Should "I" call them up and find out exactly what the problem is? I don't want go back out there without some knowledge of this procedure.

Thank you for any comments/assistance/personal experience with this type of thing.
