    Is it just me, or has the number of "unfired" AR's being offered seemed to increase pretty steadily lately?

    I knew this would happen. People would rush out to buy something that they feared they wouldn't be able to get, and now that the scare is over, those credit card bills are coming due.

    I will buy when they start selling below MSRP for Wal-Mart. So any of you guys that bought these in panic and now want to get off of them, PM me. We can cut through all of the haggling ******** and get straight down to brass tacks.

    Oh, and I promise to keep your identity anonymous. ;)

    Like the people that paid $20+ per mag, hoping to sell for $50+ and now can only get $9 now that they are in stock?

    Paying interest is no good. I hope they all take a good, cold, bath on the scare items.

    Yep I'm rubbing my hands together waiting for the dirt cheap stripped lowers. That will be right around the time I graduate, and start making the big bucks!

    Ammo, on the other hand, is only going up :(.

    It's amazing how fast inventory (guns) is being put back on the shelves, I would really like to know the number of guns sold these past months.

    I still think ammo is going to take a while to catch up, I was low in my reserves before this whole thing went done so I have some catching up to do.

    I've been saving my $ for a while, now. Keeping my fingers crossed for those credit card sales. :)

    Let me see if I can appeal to some of these folks that may not understand how the credit card purcahses work. If you bought a rifle(s) on credit hoping that you would have the only ones left for sale after a total gun ban and you would have realized a nice profit; you now know that gamble didn't pan out. Hey, it happens. Do you think Warren Buffet hit the jackpot on every one of his deals? I think not.

    So, now you have a rifle or rifles that are worth no more than what they were worth before the hullabaloo. But here's the kicker. Unless you can afford the rifles you need to understand, that margin call is knocking at your financial door. And everytime you pay only the minimum on that credit card balance cause that's all you can afford, your bank is slowly breaking out the ramrod for you. Now that rifle purchase is an albatross around your neck.

    Each month that passes brings a higher cost to your rifle. What will you do about food? What about gas to get to work? What if you pay for school? That accruing interest is like a an olive press; slowly squeezing the oil out of you. Think about how much that rifle is going to have cost in 3 more months, or worse; 6?

    Do you want that albatross to fall from your neck? Do you want to stop having cold sweats in the night while you sleep from worrying about the money? Do you want your girlfriend or wife to start having sex with you again?

    Take the hit while it's still just only a small life lesson. Sell that rifle for a small loss. To me! See I understand your pain. I know it's embarrassing to admit you took it in the ass! Look, you took a shot. <No pun intended! You heard the chatter. Felt that panic mounting! Knew that anti-gun zealots were sure to win the day. It happens!

    PM me! Let me know what kind of albatross your carrying. If it's an albatross that I am looking for, we can get you through this. But, as with an alcohol or drug problem, you have to admit you have a problem. Your problem is time and what you think your NIB or never fired rifle is worth. It's no longer on your side. So come to me with a clear head, and lose the idea of making a profit! That's not reality for you any longer. It's time to cut your losses. To save some dignity (and some interest).

    I'll be waiting to hear from you! ;)
