    Until you realize the garden is outside, making it even more difficult to defend than your pallet of charmin and single can of chili.

    My friend got tired of waiting in line and had to leave. But looks like they wouldn’t of had much left in inventory by the time he got in. My other friend went to pick up a gun today at an FFL and said due to volume he couldn’t get through to nics

    I get why people want to be armed but why panic buy? They should of bought guns months ago if not years!

    What I keep seeing on the news (mostly from other states) is that there are a lot of first time gun buyers who are panic-buying. I mean, I doubt anyone on the forum here is out buying their first firearm this weekend. Maybe I'm wrong.

    Anyway, I had a thought: Is there anything we can do to help first time gun owners be safe and responsible? I know it's our own responsibility to be safe with our firearms, but the fact that a lot of these people are going to be unable (or unwilling) to go to the range to even familiarize themselves with their new firearm makes me want to put together a list of resources, or YouTube videos that you guys think are of good quality, or really anything. Probably a dumb idea, I don't even know how we would get the word out. Just making conversation on a day when I might normally try to head to the range!

    Sure, but if you really believe that people in general have common sense I’ve got a lovely piece of swamp land to sell that I guarantee will double in value every year. It’s true I tell ya...

    I've been doing my fair share. Loaned/sold guns to friends, gave them basic firearm instruction, made sure they knew the main rules of muzzle and trigger discipline, and treating a gun like it's always loaded. Besides that, they really need time at the range to get used to the muscle memory or build some etc.
