An AR for everybody

Featured Replies

Some of you know I work in a sporting goods store that sells guns.

 

We get hoarders all the time.

 

Right or wrong if somebody owns an AR I'm reluctant to sell him/her another one.

 

I would like to see an AR in every home when owned by a eligible person and secured properly.

 

That's just me...

That's why when I sell an ammo lot or something that can be split up, I try to during this time. I'd rather have 3 people get some ammo versus 1 person buying it all.

As long as they don't burn it up like Aholes as I've see ninjas do in the past.

but what if I want one for every member of the household?

 

Vlad - Is that a straw purchase?

buy a bunch of everything. If they wait they lose. If I did decide to sell I would give people here a deal. If it went to gunbroker the sheep can pay for waiting.

Why would it be? Last I checked it was perfectly legal to take my family to the range with my personal firearms and have each of them shoot one of my firearms under my supervision.

There you are correct. I thought you/someone was buying for another person.

i miss RayRay's mag dumps. Esp @ range 14. -lol

I own more then one, and plan on another (lightweight build for the little guy)

 

Plus, I work with a few anti gun liberals so I'll take their share.

Before this madness I was planning on my first. Unfortunately, who knows when it will be now. I am eyeing a P226 to dull the pain.

This whole mess started gaining momentum in the 1990's right before the first AWB. If you didn't see this coming prior to 2008 you had your head in the sand, Stevie Wonder, and Ray Charles could have seen this coming.

 

If I was paying attention, made the right decisions, bought early (at a decent price) and now have multiple ARs, parts, and ammo to hold me over for quite some time, why do you feel I should "spread the wealth"?

 

Reeks of socialism.

 

Remember that story about the ant and the grasshopper? These are concepts we learned as children. The rules still apply.

as do I

 

Frank can't travel that far south anywayz.

 

Buy ARs, buy ammo for them and buy mags for them too.

 

WOLVERINES!

I think the "spread the wealth" socialist perspective in this situation is kinda off. He's not advocating you do anything with your guns. he simply believes that everyone should have the opportunity to buy one if they want one. A lot of places put purchase limits on items in these hard times.

As was I. But since I am moving to South Carolina this summer I'll just wait, won't have to jump through all these stupid a$$ NJ laws/restrictions. So I've bought a Mossberg 500 and have 3 handgun permits on the way to hold me over for the time being.

Listen, I get what you're "trying" to say, but you don't know anyone's life responsibilities, priorities, or what's happened since "prior to 2008" and not everyone has a crystal ball as you do. Relax. The fight is with anti's not amongst each other.

Working in a store vs. Owning a store, how does the boss feel about your sense of fairness in limiting sales? Is he buying the greater good argument?

The free market rules. I would love to sell my stuff to a fellow member here for no mark up. But whos to say in a month said member doesnt want it anymore and sells it for the profit i would have made. Make as much money as you can for your stuff when you sell it. You just might not be able to replace it.

Where's my Obamacare AR? Man, if that was in there, I would've jumped on the wagon. :laugh:

It's fair if I buy one for my future kids? Eventhough I don't plan on having kids, but just in case I do, I would already have another one in the gunsafe?

Best to buy five. Never know if your wife might end up with quints.

Old School, what ARs does your shop carry? What are you all charging per unit?

 

In your effort to see an AR in every home are they priced as to be afforded by every family?

First, I am not fighting with anyone.

 

Second, You are right, I don't know everyone's life responsibilities or priorities. If you paid the rent instead of buying an AR, good. That's what you are supposed to do. If you couldn't buy ammo because you were out of work, or your kid needed new hockey pads or you had to pay for braces I understand. The question, to be blunt, is so what? I had to pay my mortgage and insurance. I have a kid and all the bills that accumulates. The price of gas went up for me too and my house is now worth less than I paid for it. I have had family issues, car trouble, and the typical curve balls life threw at me. So what? I budgeted, took my time and built/bought my rifles. We are all responsible grown up adult human beings. We are all responsible for our actions and decisions in life. If I have 3 ARs and I want another, and am willing to pay, why shouldn't I be able to buy a fourth rifle? I should be told "No sir, you have enough. We need to spread the ARs around so everyone gets one." I think that's wrong.

 

I also didnt need my crystal ball to see this coming and you shouldn't have either. I am merely pointing out that this fight has been going on since before December 14, 2012.

Now we're talking. Just in case right? And I always wanted to be a prepper, it's never too late to start

so true. I'm having two more kids. I can't let them each not have an ar when they get older
