The Obama Effect

November 12th, 2008 by Justin Leave a reply »

The other night I got a phone call out of the blue from somebody I know. They wanted to buy a handgun, never owned one before, never really shot one before.

I gave a quick run-down of the issues on the phone, asked for their email address, and rifles off a 4 page poorly written primer on the subject.

It wasn’t until this morning that I realized this might be an “Oh shit, Obama’s going to be President” decision.

I’m a little slow sometimes, and there is a chance this is purely coincidental, but I doubt it.

    Yep, got all the hardware I need, but I am still upping my supply of ammo and reloading components. You can never have too much of those. Especially if they make an end-run and try to tax ammo sales out of existence.

    Aim Surplus here in Middletown Ohio is out of just about everything. They are asking for paitence with all orders. They said they are overwhelmed ! Hope the CSF isn’t sent to collect all this stuff!
