After work yesterday morning I stopped off at the gun store where I took delivery of my new toy to buy ammo for it.
Surprise!
My gunsmith doesn't have any...
As a matter of fact, he has no ammunition for any "varmint rifle".
...Hasn't had any for days, because as soon as new ammo comes in it is sold. He has a waiting list for it.
I added my name to his list.
Froggy, the temperature of the water may be closer to a boil than I imagined.
That is a cool looking rifle; the folding stock should help with any close-quarters squirrel hunting.
ReplyDeleteI always like weird economic indicators. WalMart claims that when a hurricane is about to hit an area, sales of Pop Tarts increases. So I naturally think Pop Tarts create low pressure centers.
What do you think the increase in ammo sales at your gun store is an indicator of? A response to recession (the old adage that whiskey and gun sales increase during hard economies)? Fear of tighter gun laws? Something else entirely?
Thanks Duke.
ReplyDeleteI select answer "D", All of the above.
And my carbine is accurate out to about a football field away. I don't want squirrels getting any closer than that.
