If it doesn't fit the topic in any of the other forums, and is firearm-related, put it here!

Think about how stupid the average person is. Then think about the fact that half of the people are more stupid than him.

Just Capitalism ,..."supply and demand",... raising the ugly side, of its head.

And, purely the results of the Demonscats trying to manipulate the stupid in this country with their scare propaganda tactics! And then, having those results turn around and bite them on the arse, just like every other hair brained political scam they have run on us, since Trump got in.

There is only one remedy,... VOTE,VOTE,VOTE...PLEASE VOTE,... AND BRING A FRIEND WHEN YOU DO!!!

If you haven't learned by now that panic buying happens every few years because of politicians, you've been living under a rock. And if you didn't stock up when things weren't crazy, you deserve to pay through the nose for what you buy today.

Just because it's reality doesn't mean I condone any gougers out there, and people here have a long memory. Just look at what happened to ATFSUX. I kinda liked his input on the old site, but he got forever slammed.

Gougers are only if you are a retailer or manufacturer. If you are a private person that doesn't want to come off of any of their stuff but people want it, do what u want. People dont have to buy it. As long as people can wait to get it somewhere else you are not a gouger. If people pay your price o well

Yep, still makes you an ass, and most of us “old timers” have a pretty long memory. Enjoy dealing with the ArmsList trolls, Elk34! :lol:
