    Kennah!
    Howdy all.
    Looks like it’s time for the second round of gun and ammo panic buying.
    What with all the rioting and looting even more people are figuring out that owning a firearm might just be a good idea.

    That said, have any of you folks in the gun shops experienced a sudden uptick in business?
    All thoughts appreciated.

    Not sure if this is something that can be coordinated, but how great would it be to be able to draw the thousands of "panic" first time firearm purchasers from around the country to this forum to sell all of the guns that they will soon realize are not really needed any longer? And the deals! I can see it now:

    Joe: "Hey Jerry. I bought this brand new gun two months ago for the riots, I think it is a Sig MPX or something!?! I don't need this thing hanging around my house. It's just an accident waiting to happen. I need to sell it. I would take damn near anything for it!"
    Jerry: "Go to a pawn shop. I'm sure they would give you a fair price!"

    Next day:

    Joe at "Insta-Cash" Pawn>

    Pawn Shop Parasite: "Whatcha got?"
    Joe: "I bought this thing 2 months ago and need to just get rid of it. I never took it out of the box. What would you give me for it?"
    PSP: Hmmmm. "Not sure. What do you want for it?"
    Joe: "I don't know, what would you offer me?"
    PSP: Hmmmm. Don't really need it. I don't know, I guess I could give you $300 bucks cash for it?"
    Joe: "Sold!"

    :shocked:
