Gun Sales up ten billion percent

Not exactly, but pretty much.

From Larry Correia (of Monster Hunter International fame) comes tales of his gun shop.

RSR, largest wholesaler of firearms in America has nothing in stock. Nothing. No semi auto 5.56, 7.62×39, or .308 guns. No Kel-Tecs, no Colts, no Bushmasters, no Sigs, no FNs, zip, bupkis. We’re backordering product like crazy and taking orders.

I've been waiting on a local evil black rifle store to get in the upper I wanted, and some parts, and the answer I've gotten every time is; "We ordered it. We have absolutely no idea what's going to come when." I guess now it makes sense.

Our custom gun wall has become the Barack Obama Memorial Layaway wall as we’re trying to find a place to stash all the guns that have been people put money down on until they get paid again. The only part of the economy that is booming is gun sales, or at least, until Comrade Chairman Obama shuts us all down and we become the FBMG Teddy Bear Hospital and Scented Candle Emporium.

Get while the gettin's good.

I might actually buy a few more lowers just to sell later at inflated prices.
