    Trump never suggested anyone drink disinfectant. Nancy Pelosi however said he said it, repeatedly and as recently as last week. Trump suggested using disinfectant for treatment because it's a valid treatment. Hydrogen Peroxide is a disinfectant and it has been used both in the bloodstream and in the lungs to fight similar viruses. It is also what most hospitals and doctors offices use to wipe down surfaces as it does not have a strong smell. Long used treatment and what he was referring too, not Lysol as Pelosi suggested.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle.

    Upon reflection I'd like to think I was in gun mode as 1894 has more relevance here RE: 1894 Winchester. Or could just be cognitive decline.
    A lot of that going around.

    Newest thing here is kids going back to school. Massive panic of course. Numbers don't support any of it of course. This virus is far less dangerous to school age individuals than the common flu. But, they are seeing 90% increases in positive tests from school age kids and a few of the athletes attending practices are testing positive. Never mind that the only reason there is a huge spike in positives is because they are testing people whether they show signs of being sick or not.

    Media ran with a story of a six year old that died of Covid without really mentioning that this kid had about six comorbidities. Just how cute she was etc, etc. College sports is also being cancelled now. Football seasons soon to be scrapped nation wide by the looks of things along with every other fall sport.

    Another update from the gunshop, things are getting real bad. Ammunition has become a premium. This week are only permit ONE case of 9mm for the week. The rest is being funneled to the local police deprtments for their required qualifications. We received 15 Tristar Cobra 12 gauge tactical pump shotguns. They did not last two days before they were gone. Hoping for another 15 guns tomorrow. Still no Troy A4 Others yet being made. Supposed to get 30 guns in with more in the pipeline. We will see I have been promised that before with no deliveries. Ammunition is getting tight we are only limiting to the number of boxes, no more by the case sales. I talked to a gentleman who was looking for .380ACP ammo which I have not seen in a while. I asked him how much did he have on hand at home. He told me he had 600 rounds already! I told him him if he needed to shoot that much, he needs to get a bigger gun or call in an air strike! The panic is unbelievable. Still getting a lot of people who are still living under a rock or in a cave and have no idea what is going on. I do not see these shortages going away any time soon probably even after the Presidential election. Hunting season is approaching and I am not seeing the gun and ammunition manufacturers gearing up for the season. Everything is tactical, tactical and tactical. Everyone be safe and healthy. Remember the family that slays together stays together.

    "Never let a crisis go to waste." Never let a crisis go dormant if you have gas to throw on it. If you are lacking a crisis create one.

    That's what happening here.
    Things keep improving, most of the infected people have zero point nothing in terms of conditions and, also, are immigrants who just land in Italyicon and then disappear at their pleasure, but the government talks about draconian measures after August and Bravo Sierra like that...
    Keep up the tension, it will help keep people quiet and scared, thus controllable at pleasure...

    Update from Yesterday: No changes in sales, people still asking for the unobtainable. 9mm pistols are becoming unavailable. War trophies are starting to come in for repairs and cleaning as no new pistols are available. Late in the day my distributor finally showed up with 10 Troy A4 Others in 5.56mm and 10 12 guage Churchill tactical pump shotguns and 5 Black Aces tactical ump shotguns. The blood is in the water!! Tomorrow will be a feeding frenzy at the shop.

    Must be a New Jersey thing. Only frenzy in PA seems to be with ammo. Local gun shop has two cases of pistols, maybe not the newest as I don't pay attention to that sort of thing. Another down in Lancaster is getting plenty of new things.
