1,000,000+ Guns Added to American Homes in August

I have just bought 3 guns in the last 20 years.
I do have over 10 guns though. Several are Family heirloom types.
You will cry when you go to buy 30-30 ammo. The paranoia has driven prices to the sky.

I know the price has at least quadrupled since the last time I bought some. I have a little and will be on the lookout for some bargains. Found some on 223 ammo the other day, not the FMJ stuff either......$8 for a box of 50. Bought 10 boxes. :)
 
Another 1,000,000+ Guns Added to American Homes in August
Background Checks On Firearm Sales Up 12% In August.
Americans buy 1,074,757+ guns in August 2009



Data released by the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) reported 1,074,757 checks in August 2009, a 12.3 percent increase from the 956,872 reported in August 2008.

So far that is roughly 9,076,205 gun bought this year! The total is probably more as NICS background checks may cover the purchase of more than one gun at a time.

This latest jump in background checks show that Americans are solidly in-favor of keeping firearms in the hands of law abiding citizens and clearly shows that proponents claiming the USA wants more gun control are blatantly wrong.

Gun Owners Say No to Gun Conrtol with their Wallets
The increased trend of Americans buying firearms at a record pace was once thought to be a one time fluke caused by fears of the new Obama administration expressed lust for more gun control. But now 10 months in and the wrongly named “fear buying” has now become the norm as law abiding US citizen exercise their constitutional right to keep and bear firearms by the millions every month with no sign of slowing down.

The bulk of the buying has been concentrated on the following types of guns or calibers:

* Semi Auto Handguns
* Revolvers
* Ar15s and all variants of the Black Rifle
* .50 Caliber


1.17 Guns for Each Person
Conservative estimates of legally owned guns in the USA put the number at 355,029,250 million guns in the USA. That is 1.17 guns for everyone in the USA and if you listen to the liberal press they are all assault weapons. God bless anyone who tries to invade the USA…

LOL

Be afraid libtards, all those guns in the hands of those bitter rightwinger's.

NOBODY fears a bunch of lunatics with guns .. and by the way, ONLY a lunatic would believe you're the only one with a gun. Unbeknownst to the knucklehead, there are lots of guns in the hands of liberals and I'd imagine that many of the new gun sales are liberals and other people with brains.

People like you would rather destroy this country than live democratically.

You want a war .. bring it on.
 
:0)

Why do people believe that because they have a gun the world should fear them?

... wait, I know .. Hollywood.

"Make my day"

"You're the disease and I'm the cure"

"Bring it on"

... Hollywood

I have over 20 guns......long guns, short guns & shotguns. No one need "fear" me unless they try to harm my family. That's the way I've always looked at it.

A sane way to look at it indeed .. but that isn't what webbthing is talking about.

He has a gun .. so all "libtards" should be afraid.

That's mindless .. but it's what the far-right wants.

Please explain to me why every liberal democrat is always whining about gun control. In California, home of whiney libtards, the democraps are trying to push a bill to require background check and a fingerprint before buying a box of ammo. Yep, liberals are well known gun right supporters.

Those liberals represent all liberals about like Fred Phelps represents all conservatives.

There are plenty of armed liberals.
 
who should be afraid is those dam Chinese if they try to invade our country to steel our gold. Minute men live on.

One can recognize that guns need to be controlled .. while at the same time owning a gun and standing against the mindless proliferation of guns in our society. You don't have to be a gun right supporter to own a gun.

Personally, I've never owned a gun .. and I've lived in urban environments all my life. Grew up in Detroit. Your best weapon is your mind.

That being said, if occassion arises that I need a gun, such as all-out war in the US, I know how to get a gun and I know how to shoot what I'm aiming at. I'm not unfamiliar with guns, just don't own one, don't care for them.

But if I have to, I'll kill anything that threatens my family .. and I'll still be a leftist, still be against the proliferation of guns.
