Gun sales surging again
« on: May 04, 2017, 02:07:07 PM »
After Trump's win in November, gun sales predictably cooled off from the record levels of the Obama era.  However the recently released data for  background checks in April 2017 show sales have resurged and almost set a new record.

Is it a coincidence that this occurred in the same month as Trump's great betrayal of the people who had secured his highly improbable victory?  I think not.

The plateau can be attributed to market saturation while the recent surge can be attributed to lefties gearing up.

Be ready.

Love these articles... look at the raw data... https://www.fbi.gov/file-repository/nics_firearm_checks_-_month_year.pdf/view

December was HUGE. Jan fell off from last year, January was the third highest on record, and the other months are a few hundred thousand down from last year- also third highest on record, expect April which is second.

They tapered perhaps, but dropped they really haven't.

Yeah...a momentary lull...

I always thought a slackening didn't make sense...

But if more lefties are buying as 'Soup suggests...wouldn't we also see an increase in self-inflicted gunshot wounds?   ;D

Yeah, right?  I mean I see this in the same light as a jihadi trying to give his fellow cultists tips on safe explosives handling!

Some of the Antifags have been open carrying recently, with their AK and SKS rifles that have never been zeroed at a rifle range before.  Some of them are also obviously airsoft guns, but I guess they can look like the next Che Guevara on their Instagram profiles.

Apparently some business is going down on Sunday in New Orleans.  I hope we see some Antifa leftards getting their teeth knocked out.

I have some web buddies who are going. I wish them sell but think that they are behaving foolishly. You won't catch me on enemy ground agitating the locals.

May 2017 sets new record for the month of May.  Surpasses even 2015 and 2016 levels.

I think everyone just intuitively knows there is a fight for our very survival looming.
