anyone else have a list of shit to buy on the 9th if Hillary wins?

>>31921030
pmags. easiest one to sell for most profit

>>31920345
No.

By law, your FFL has to report an individual for "building an arsenal" if you DROS 12 or more firearms in a single transaction. I've had collected fucks buy 11 guns in one day from an estate sale. And put another 6 on hold. After their 10 day wait, they start DROS on the other 6.

Collectors are an autistic bunch.

i got this. Was going to get it anyway.

>>31921048
It will be too late, people are already panic buying and almost everything good is long out of stock. Uppers, lowers, ammo.

Not very bad yet, there is still some stock but it's going fast. Was at a local fun store just yesterday and they still had stock of ARs AKs and ammo/mags but the tiny place was full and everyone was buying.

>>31921048
lol you should've been buying months in advance. It's too late already.

>>31920325
Thank God I bought 100 g3 mags I can sell after the election/awb 2.0 happens.

I thought that FFL reports after more than 2 handguns

>>31921423

Unless you have a bunch of new, in-wrapper mags you're really not going to make a whole lot of money. You'll be sitting on those for a long ass time because the kind of guy that buys them in bulk already has hundreds of them sitting in a closet.

Hi guys, almost nogunz here. Just bought a ruger 10/22 to train with, complete lower and m&p shield 9mm to carry, what should my next buys be? I'm thinking a full size handgun over a shotgun since I'm sure I'll still be able to find a shotgun after gun control measures. I'll probably be getting 20 or 30 pmags for the ar, does anyone have cheap bulk ammo suggestions?

>>31922564
Buy an upper first. Also start buying ammo if you can. 2 guns with 5,000 rounds of ammo is better than 5 guns with 1,000 rounds. Bulk federal, wolf gold and pmc are all good.

Just bought one of the PSA AR-15 Upper kits, with BCG, stock, buffer tube, trigger, etc.

Do I just need to get a stripped lower, and I'm good to go?

Did I fuck up by not buying upper receiver parts? I have 4 stripped lowers but nothing else. Is everything else going to see price gouging too?

>>31924720
Sounds good, if you don't already you'll need roll punches, an armorers wrench, and vice block will make it alot easier.

>>31924771

Thanks. The kit already has the barrel attached. Do I still need the roll punches then?

Bought my first AR15 at a gun show

Was originally going to build my first gun but all of the parts I wanted went out of stock.
Worried that prices are going to be inflated post election

Got a M&P sport II with 18" barrel and quad rail

Feel like I fucked up. I wanted a 16" barrel but they didnt have any.

I have less than 15 AR mags and not enough ammo

Yes, you can make an ar lower with a block of wood and a pocket knife but you need special tools and materials to make the internals and barrel.

If Hillary wins she gonna wait until the next time some autistic faggot, or deranged snackbar decides to reenact "no russian" before she starts banning the guns.

Just need to go clean out Walmart's 7.62x54r when I can.

Hopefully.

Forgot pic.

And do you guys think if Hillary gets in guns/mags will automatically skyrocket the second the election is over? Or will there be some additional time to stock up until she announces some cuck ban before prices get ridiculous?

I've felt the panic, unfortunately I'm also on a tight budget. Only own a couple hand downs, but bought by first own gun yesterday with last week's paycheck. Picked up an RIA 1911 GI and a box of 45 from the gun show. All I could afford, and I wanted a handgun.

>>31920325

Eh, I'm a semi-poorfag. I have a blue collar job and a little money to spend, but I'm still raising a family. I got an AR and suppressor, and I purchased another AR and a scope recently. I got several mags, about as many as I'll need, but I haven't invested in buying more for a pre-ban, grandfathered "high-capacity" mag goldmine. I got some armor and plenty of ammo for me if shit hits the fan. "Plenty" is a relative term, of course.

I guess I'm just prepared to do my own amount of violence for any cause I believe in if shit hits the fan.

>>31925450
Nice choice! I already ordered a colt m4 upper yesterday. Also tonight I ordered another 1000rds.

Will probably end up,with an eokek sight on it but for now irons that come with it and may have gf get me a carry handle for it for Christmas to do basic bitch M4 that will contrast the Gucci AR I have.

Bought a ruger LC9s on Saturday. Going to get it at 6pm after 72 hour waiting period and have it for election night. Will likely spend election night at the range after voting and before work.

I'll just weather this panic period the way I always do, by not panicking.

Never really cared for maks but that's actually gorgeous, gj anon

I got an M4 and a cool lower to build later. Plus 260 rounds of ammo because what good's a gun without some bullets?

That's all tho. I'm no more concerned about being able to get guns than I was last week because I'm from California so we had a deadline, anyway.

>>31920325

I'm more worried about a Trump win.

We can survive 4 more years of Obama 1.5, but Trump is a wildcard.

>>31928758
It went up $6 yesterday, I was afraid that it was going to go up even higher.
Ordered it online so I can't see it until it's at the dealer, what should I check for quality before I accept the transfer?

>>31928786
Stock fitment look for any rattle or gaps.look at any pins or screws and make sure they are even or at least not protruding or something. Things like magazine tube cap being fitted correctly, marks from milling on the receiver, ect. Streaks in the finish, burrs on metal surfaces, that kind of thing. I don't personally own a mossberg so I couldn't tell you any specific problems they are know to have, but you might want to look into potential defects. But all of the above are generally what I do with any firearm.
Hope that helps fampai

I was planning on buying a handgun and the ammo all at once after a few paychecks, but should I just get the ammo now? I mean to my knowledge prop 63 isn't changing the purchasing process of handguns.

couple of thousand of rounds of 9mm, 45, 762x39.
couple dozen ar mags
40 g3 mags
ptr-91
couple hundred rounds of 308
walther ccp
and a k31 cause it just happened to be at a gunshow yesterday

Little bit of ammo, some $7 GI mags, two glock mags.. Sucks being broke.

>not wanting your doggo dead

I really want a vepr .308 but I'm about a paycheck short.

Aren't thumbhole stocks illegal in CA? Why is atlantic firearms selling them as CA compliant.

I just received some lowers I ordered, I was worried the ship had sailed but I had some good timing when some showed up in stock somewhere.

I'm now satisfied I have enough lowers for all the builds I could ever think of, so I probably won't buy any more. Even with a permanent AWB I don't think prices will ever reach levels like registered machineguns, there are simply too many in existence now. All the foundries have probably been running nonstop since 2008, I wouldn't be surprised if there are more lowers than people in this country.

>>31931250

>>31931250

>>31925450
Everything will go out of stock by the weekend (Nov 12), but things will come back briefly for Black Friday, since all the online stores are withholding a bit of stock so they can do sales over that weekend. Then prices will shoot up.

>>31921166
I made a tour today. First place just opened and sucked--little ammo or magazines. Second place was a specialty outfitter--looked and left. Third place was disorganized as fuck and had most of the stock gone for a gun show. Fourth place was where I spent most of my money; they were great. It'd be a store /k/ would really enjoy. Younger guys working and gunsmithing; has everything in stock and the "check the back room" returned each time with relevant items for purchase. Bartered a bit on price and got everything for fair amounts. Basically, black rifle paradise. They were decently stocked today and will probably be sold out by Saturday.

No, bugs gun shot is down to half dozen rifles, cheaper than dirt has ZERO 5.56 rifles in stocks. All decent 5.56 ammo is sold out nearly everywhere and Hillary hasn't even been officially installed as supreme leader yet.

LOL this is such bullshit.

I walked into Dick's today and there's like 30 420 round boxes of Federal and 60 150 round boxes of American Eagle 62 grain M855.

This "panic" is nonexistent in VA, which is pretty fucking ironic considering the future VP is the idiot who tried to ban stuff here.

Yeah, no. There are a ton of bare hooks at VA Arms. 5.56 and 9mm are either overpriced or out of stock. RSR has almost no blck rifles besides ARs, which there are not many in stock despite there being hundreds of manufacturers. RSR is almost completely out of .22lr.

You're just not seeing it.

Better to panic buy too early than too late.

I ordered a 1000rd case of my favorite ammo two days ago from my favorite site. Their entire business is wholesale ammo, that literallly all they sell, big warehouse with loads of ammo and at the time they had 25 cases listed in stock, checked back last night to gauge panic levels and now it's out of stock along with nearly all other 5.56.
