Why are folks buying so many guns? Is it because they know that the poop is about to hit the fan and they want to protect themselves, or could it be that they plan on taking what YOU have…?

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


 

Even after the failed passage of “expanded background checks” in the U.S. senate people are still buying guns and ammo by massive numbers, with Sturm, Ruger reporting sales of 500,000 each in one quarter and abackorder list of over 2 million according to a recent report at zerohedge.
