    Stock up NOW on Guns & Ammo

    If you were looking into stocking up on ammo and guns...now is the time to buy since the warehouse shelves are still fairly full. My local gun shop tells me that AR sales have already exceeded normal sales this winter, and the reason people are buying is because they fear Obama getting another term. If Ron Paul doesn't end up pulling this thing off, it will be too late by then.

    Remember what happened last time in 2008? AR-15's and ammo prices were through the roof, IF you could even find any at all... AR-15 parts kits were selling at $200.00 instead of $50.00. Stripped lower AR-15 receivers were selling for $300.00 instead of $100.00. A new AR was 1.5 grand instead of $700.00.

    So my advice is to bite the bullet and just get it done. You'll sleep better knowing you are good to go for ammo and guns.

    Thanks,
    Paul

    I think Joe Bobs Outfitters still has polymer AR lowers for $99 each, paired with the cheapest upper you can find, would make good hand out rifles.

    the problem is everyone who buys a gun legally will be in the government list of gun owners when they come to remove all the privately owned guns. the gun owners will be the first against the wall.

    I don't know of any federal law like that. There isn't a state law like that where I live. As far as I am aware, it is easy to legally buy a firearm without the government knowing about it.

    The whole point of having guns is to use them to prevent such a thing, since gun confiscation is the last nail in the coffin for freedom in any country. It's not like I'm going to buy an arsenal and then just give it up if the government makes it illegal and wants to confiscate it.

    Obviously you live in a State that requires registration.
    Let them keep thinking Ron Paul supporters are just a little army. Every military strategy manual in the world has examples of the bad things that happen to arrogant commanders of massive armies that underestimate the enemy. They all lose. We will win because the human heart, despite its detractors, is meant for truth and freedom.

    Actually it's always a good time buy guns and ammo.

    Always.

    And who here is stupid enough to want to play war with them? Hell you want to play war go join an army.

    Self defense and preparedness isn't the same thing as wanting to to play war, and to think everyone who wants to keep and bear arms is some kind of wanna-be mercenary is stupid.

    An armed society is a polite society, and when eveyone knows that anyone can be carrying it makes all but the most stupid control themselves most of the time.

    Now if someone is psychologically afraid of weapons or firearms or having the power of life and death on their person then they need counsuling, since they are in denial about their own and other peoples mortality and their personal responsibility for their and their communities well-being.

    Being armed is sort of like societies immune system, you don't want to be infected but if you are a strong immune system can let you destroy the infectious organism and recover.

    But having a strong immune system to begin with will prevent infection more often than not.

    edit:

    There is a gun and ammo show in Memphis this week, I'm broke as all he!! but I may end up pulling a few hundred out of 'emergency cash' to get the basic reloading supplies I need for my (extremely) meager shooting needs.

    Not because I think the end of the world is coming and I'll need to fight off the terminators but simply because it is a simple, inexpensive, and good skill to know, and if I learn it now I can pass it on to my kids and they will grow up with a more knowledgeable and mature attitude of guns that I did.

    I don't understand this post. Maybe somebody can help me out. It's a good thing to buy guns, correct? Firearms ought to be used in self defense, right? Practice makes perfect, still the best answer???

    Someone wise once wrote that "the greatest reason to retain the Right to keep and bear Arms is, as a last resort, to prevent tyranny in government."

    Given those facts, I was taken aback by that statement: "And who here is stupid enough to want to play war with them? Hell you want to play war go join an army."

    The Second Amendment is all about owning firearms for the purposes of insuring the security of a free State. The militia is not mercenaries, terrorists, or wannabes... though the majority of them have now taken on that role. When we're looking at the prospect of mass round-ups, weapons confiscations and an end to constitutional Liberties (most made possible by the Tea Parties, right wingers, militias, anti - immigrants, and talk radio followers), we have to make up our minds to unite and be prepared because an individual is no match for any portion of the POLICE STATE.

    What you fail to understand is that in a well-armed society the need for self defense could potentially be much less.

    Everyone except the most stupid of criminals would think twice to commit a violent crime if they know that everyone around them is likely to be armed, and those who are that stupid would be culled out of the population in fairly short order.

    Again, except for the most stupid of government goons no one would initiate violence against the citizenry if they knew that the citizenry were well armed. Just like supposedly in WWII neither Japan nor Germany had any serious plans to invade the USA, because they knew they would be facing a well armed population. Just like despite the trillions of wasted dollars neither the Soviet Union nor the United States has been successful in occupying Afghanistan.

    Well, I guess the leaders of both the old Soviet Union and the current USA qualify as the sort of stupid I alluded to above, since they did try.

    Why, do you want to go play war? I don't, and me keeping a bearing arms doesn't make me want to either.

    War is terrible and should only be resorted to when one's country is invaded or is in imminent threat of being invaded or attacked by another military force. I don't see that happening in the USA any time soon.

    I don't share the same level of fear that you seem to, I don't think the USA military is a bunch of psychopathic mercenaries ready to declare martial law, and I do think that the majority of the US military takes their oath of enlistment to the Constitution seriously.

    Otherwise these events would probably have already come to pass.

    Well WilliamC, I get where you're coming from. Thank you very much for the veiled attack on both my motives and intelligence. I can now respond to you:

    I don't like the prospect of war. Most of the people that wanted to join the militia in its early formation had no love affair with war. Your suggestion is that people buy car insurance because they enjoy getting into car wrecks.

    WilliamC wrote:

    "I don't think the USA military is a bunch of psychopathic mercenaries ready to declare martial law..."

    RESPONSE: Since I did not accuse WilliamC of thinking that, I can only infer that he is accusing me of believing such a preposterous position. Well, WilliamC, when you are shooting blanks, I guess you should yell bang so as to confuse the people. Let's educate WilliamC:

    The military does not get to declare martial law. It's not their decision. We do know from history... things like the attack on a church in Waco, Texas that resulted in the deaths of seventeen innocent children that the military will act on the orders they receive from the government. That is their job. My opinion, WilliamC, is that many in the military do like war.

    When military forces converged on Waco, Texas, they hoisted up an American flag as if attacking a church were some kind of victory. With the bodies of children strewn about, I could not begin to fathom that incident as a victory. When the military thinks they are disarming all of you because you are potential terrorists, you can use whatever choice of words you think will help your case, WilliamC, but you will be disarmed... or you will fight.

    I came from an era where the military was used against churches in the United States; they employed the military to take Randy Weaver out in a place called Ruby Ridge. I lived through the murder of people like Gordon Kahl and Scott Woodring and many others you never heard of.

    Above all, I am a realist. Congress passes laws like the so - called "Patriot Act," the National Defense Authorization Act, etc. for a reason. There was this recent story about Obama and his power grab:

    http://www.freeforum101.com/outcasts...utcastsandoutl

    I get where you're coming from WilliamC. The problem for you is that while you will try to present me as being an Alex Jones kind of conspiracy buff, you will be shooting even more blanks. I'm the guy that was realistic enough to beg people not to rebuild the Berlin Wall along the southern border because all of those machine gun toting mercenaries and drones can be employed against YOU just as easily as anyone else. Congress damn sure would not be spending TRILLIONS of dollars to save (in their estimates) a couple of BILLION. No sir, they have big plans. They aren't trying to hide it from you.

    Yeah, it is a good time to buy guns. The thing is, you want to know the real reason WHY. Insure the security of a free State.

    You certainly read much into my plain words, but that is the nature of the medium in which we are communicating.

    I am not trying to present you as anything at all, and I agree with pretty much everything you say.

    But I don't think it is going to be necessary for their to be a violent revolution in order to bring about significant change, and I don't think that a well armed public citizenry is any threat at all to a legitimate government.

    There are corrupt individuals within all branches of government, and they have committed atrocities and may again do so, but I think that the larger majority of our uniformed military are committed to following their Oath of Enlistment to the Constitution, and that there are enough honest and non-corrupt State and local officials in law enforcement and in the Judiciary and Districts Attorneys General and such to handle them if the time comes.

    I really am not trying to mischaracterize your positions since I really don't know what they are.

    However, I am a realist. I hear the horror stories about the TSA; see cameras all day long; can tell you about ex post facto laws being upheld by the courts (like the Lautenberg Amendment and it IS ex post facto.) The big food companies like Monsanto dream of being able to control the world's food supply by modifying seeds. The police and military are rapidly becoming one big complex. Local police agencies are now collecting hard core military hardware. The county I live in boasts APCs and tanks.

    We are being governed and controlled by private corporations and unconstitutional agencies like the Dept. of Homeland (IN) Security. We have created TRILLION DOLLAR agencies when the prices we were talking about were in the BILLIONS. Gas is going up; wages going down. Unemployment is going up while new housing starts are down. The fact is, we will face more foreclosures in the United States next year than at any time in this nation's history.

    Worse, regardless of whether the people pick Mitt Romney or Obama, your gun Rights are on the chopping block. The big headline of the day are the stand your ground laws and the clampdown on them will seriously jeopardize your Right to even own a firearm.

    I'm on this site almost daily. I see every kind of political group trying to use the Ron Paul platform to launch their own mickey mouse agenda. Many times that agenda is 180 degrees opposite of the stances that Ron Paul takes. I don't mind them disagreeing with Ron Paul's message, but what I do mind is that they take a few things out of context to somehow "prove" that Ron Paul agrees with them. So, unless we rally and unite... and develop a consistent message, the Ron Paul Revolution disappears the moment Ron Paul dies or retires.

    The back up plan is to DEFEND LIBERTY.
    Like I say, I don't see where we disagree.

    I can't tell you how real life is for me, nor do I deny your reality. But I do think the tipping point has been reached and that things are changing.

    Hopefully it won't involve any TEOTW scenarios, the very very vast majority of folks don't want that, and those that do are being more exposed every day.

    So yes, let's prepare for the worst by every means, but let's not lose site of the goal, which is nothing short of working for the best that can be.

    Oh, and I do actually think Ron Paul knows more about the global system than I do and may have some sort of insight I lack due to his having more connections and whatnot, but I don't think he agrees with me about everything either.

    Carry on.

    The best part about ammo? No diminishing returns! This next 1000 rounds of 7.62x39 is going to be just as useful as my other 14,000.
