When it really happens: SHTF...

Some gun observations. I went to our first gun show since this all started on Saturday. The crowd was not what I was expecting. There wasn't one. This particular show at Gettysburg PA is usually tough to get a parking place at but we had no trouble. Went in looked around and not a huge amount of activity going on. Found Mike sat down with him and did my Tokarev paperwork and talked for a LONG time. The Instant background checks were not instant by any means. I didn't keep track of the time but it had to be close to an hour and a half. I told him I was surprise at how few people were there and he said the place was packed between 9:00-11:00. They came in bought all the ammo and left. Slightly scary thought.

Today I stopped in our local gunshop for the first time also. Just had no desire to go in there when I didn't need to when people were acting crazy. His handgun cases were almost empty. Very few black guns on the racks. No one there but me and one other guy. Other guy asked about the crowds and he said if we wanted to see crowds, to come back in the evening. People were back to work now and I was there around 2:00 which is early. Said the place gets full after people get off work.

My ammo order that was placed in April was cancelled. Price went up $55 on a reorder, I complained, they said they would honor the original price and gave me a $25 coupon. Tried to reorder but in the 3 days to get my complaint answered, they sold out again. So who knows when I'll get that if ever and if the price will be good or not.
