[quote:Don'tBeAfraid:MV8yMTEwMzU4XzM1NTc4NDQ5X0VENDU4NTUz] 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. [/quote]

Today this gun thing got real for me.
I was in PA today and went to BPS and Cabela. I was stunned.
At BPS they were almost totally sold out of ALL handguns. CASES and CASES were totally empty. GONE. They were totally out of 9mm, 357 ammo and just about everything else. I took pictures but since there's people in them I'm not going to post them. Staff says they can't get anything else at this point, their suppliers are out. There was a sizable crowd scanning the empty cases and shelves. Salespeople I talked to said they are convinced that if anyone tries to take weapons from Americans there's going to be a civil war. They said they're seeing people who used to be anti-gun want to get one because they're afraid of what they think is happening.
Later, I stopped at Cabelas. This place is right off the highway and very visible from a distance. The crowd there was even bigger. They still had a few --
very few
--handguns but nothing left that was a carry piece, imo. I'm sure they were depleted of the little they had by the end of the day. As for ammo, they were limiting to 10 box max. There was almost nothing left.
i'm finding it hard to convey how real all seems to be becoming.
