Today was the second day of the first local gun show after the elections.
What with all the speculation about prices doubling/tripling and ammo becoming unavailable due to panic buying, I must say I am highly disappointed.
While I did not do a thorough price comparison, I did not see people snapping up trash at outrageous prices just because they might not get another chance to buy it later on. There was not a line out the door and around the block like there had been four years ago. Heck, I've seen narrower aisles and more folks crowding them last year than today.
I was promised panic buying. hoarding, and the value of my collection of nothing fancy soaring through the roof. To be honest, it feels like that Christmas when I found out that there was no Santa Claus. Quite honestly I am not going to even bother looking to see if there is a pony hidden in the middle of the pile.
So - if you had a gun show this weekend, how did it stack up against the promises we were given? If your gun show is coming up, here's the place to report on whether or not it was the last chance to stock up before the announced date of Armaggedon.
stay safe.
