All out of all AR, AK, FAL, and Siaga platforms, except the .22 caliber version. Same thing at a local chain sporting goods store. Both places literally had dozens of rifles sitting in back or on the shelf still waiting for the background checks to go through. This was on Saturday morning. |

There were a few deals out there, but honestly... the past few Black Friday's have been fairly lackluster. Black Friday used to mean good deals, but now its just psychological marketing ploys. :-( |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 28420709 United States 11/27/2012 06:20 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to www.hattiesburgamerican.com] Quoting: Anonymous Coward 28576310 WASHINGTON For the second consecutive year, prospective gun buyers joined Black Friday shoppers in record numbers as firearms dealers swamped the FBI with required buyer background check requests. The FBI fielded 154,873 calls, a roughly 20 percent increase from last year’s previous one-day record of 129,166, according to bureau records. The requests came in such volume throughout the day that FBI call centers experienced two brief outages — one of 18 minutes and one for 14 minutes — during the busy day, FBI spokesman Stephen Fischer said. Oh, good. That's gonna' solve the problems! |
