    when will the long awaited GUN GLUT happen?

    Will American industry ever be able to match the demand for guns as they did in WW1 and WW2?

    As the USA succumbs to immigration, liberalism, overspending, over-taxation and the "Two Party System".....

    will guns be the only thing still in high demand till the bitter end?


    When will industry get past the hump, production wise so it will be like the auto industry with overflowing inventory?

    Part of auto inventory problem is "model year", but still.

    In one or two years shouldn't we see all gun stores stocked to the gills and offering huge discounts and 3 for 2, etc?

    I can only hope so. I feel like the firearms industry is going to milk this dry and fill their pockets for as long as they can.
    "Then there are sheepdogs. The sheepdogs are the bastions of safety. The sheepdog lives solely to protect the flock and confront the wolf. They live for the opportunity to be called to duty to protect the innocent. The sheepdog has fangs and the propensity for violence but hopes that he will not have to resort to it. However, he lives for that day when he will be able to use his warrior skills and mindset to keep the wolf from harming the sheep."

      Why would they go into overdrive on production? Over production will just drive prices down. They have to love whats happening.

          The gun glut? It'll happen right after the elections... when everyone who panic bought tries to unload their overpriced firearms for what they paid for them. Just like last time.
          I'm retired. That's right, retired. I don't want to hear about the cop who stopped you today or how you didn't think you should get a ticket. That just makes me grumpy!

            I think it will depend on who wins the election.
            IMO If Obama wins there will not be a glut anytime soon...

              Guns will sell until no one has the money for them no matter who is elected. Then when the economy crashes, which it appears it will, the guns will be our best friends.

              Have a good look at this video for a sobering heads up by a numbers man;

                  I was born here bro, how about you?


                  Weapons can be expensive but if you search online and on the forums, you can get some decent stuff or building your own stuff. I love supporting my local gun stores so I try to find the one that has the closet prices to online prices. I mean you can get a PSA ar15 lower for about $100 when all is said and done online but if you go to the store the cheapest lower that they have is starting at $125. As long as the gun store isn't trying to rape me, I don't mind spending around $20-$40 (depending) more for something I could have gotten online cheaper.

                    .
                    What about your parents? Their Parents? How many generations do we have to go back before your family tree becomes a burden on "America"? Who in your family hurt or hampered our 2nd Amendment rights because they immigrated here?

                    The OP was a cheap shot at immigrants, who freaking built this country if you didn't know.

                    I was born in NY. My mom was born at Ellis Island when my Grandparents came over from Italy. My dad was born in Greece and his family fled Italy just before WWII broke out. At 17, my Father and two of his brothers (my Uncles), immediately joined the Army to knowing the Nazis had to be stopped. I lost an Uncle who died defending America when he had only been in this country a few years. I was raised by IMMIGRANTS who taught me to love this country and the Constitution.

                    We are done here. I have nothing more to say to you. You can explain yourself to the membership if you want. Don't think you have to because I truly believe many here hold the same racist opinions you do. Thats why I didn't bother to flag the OP...it would have fallen on deaf ears anyway. You and the OP will find you are both on my ignore list. I have no need for you two in my life.

                    EDIT- I would love to find out how many Mods read this OP.

                      Didn't read your whole post but I'm not saying immigration is the problem, I just think it's stupid with people keep bringing up the fact that this is the native Americans land and blah blah blah. Seriously gettin old. Kinda like the black people who still blame white people for slavery and the white people who still feel guilty about slavery. Move on already, learn form the past but don't live in the past.

                          i think the word "illegal" immigration would have been the more appropriate point to this post. We all know that America was BUILT on people of all races, creeds and colors coming to this country.

                          I've always said, and still feel to believe, that our countries biggest problem with "illegal" immigration started over 30 years ago. Thus allowing it to continue, we seen these illegal aliens spawn new generations of "legal" aliens, having been birthed here in the US. Now that generation is creating even new generations of people, all spawned off of the backs of people who did enter this country illegally. As a result, we have "millions" of LEGAL citizens here now in America, mainly because they have grand parents or great grand parents who came here illegally.

                          I have no issue with anyone who entered this country legally, and went through the legal proceedings to obtain their citizenship. And I blame our own government for the lax handling of the "illegal" immigration problems of 30 years ago. Even the offering of amnesty for these illegal entrants only showed defeat by our own government and a betrayal of our best interest. We are now paying the price for this betrayal and I see no immediate remedy for this overburdened country.

                          Joe Brinkman, a friend of mine of 30 years, a former Major League Umpire, always tells me "how do you unf*** up a f*** up? I still don't have an answer for him.

                            I will counter this with logic. Is the problem illegal crossing of the border or the fact the government or employers then give that person services and rights not otherwise granted to that person?

                            I look at it this way. I have kids who want food. They are hungry. I need the house cleaned and other work done. My kids want to do the work, but want a sandwich and chips first. My neighbors kids are even more hungry than mine. I set a plate of potato chips out and yell over the fence... "if the yard is mowed and the chips are gone...its ok by me." Now can my kids really blame the neighbor's kids as the source of why both are still hungry?

                            No. Illegal immigration isn't our problem. The sooner people direct their anger and frustration toward the real problem the quicker the problem will get resolved. We all benefit from illegal immigration more then we are burdened by it.

                            Cheap slave labor built this country. We are who we are because of it. It (immigration) is used as a wedge to keep us from directing our anger where it belongs.
