Once he appoints another liberal judge or two, expect something similar to that Heller case to be revisited. That 5-4 vote won't be on our side next time.

I feel like a piece of me has died tonight. Looking at the map, it is all red but just because California and New York have a huge population, you basically have to win by a landslide in order to win without California and New York. Red map, blue prez. Ugh.

Not that this is particularly to do with gun shows, but buying new guns.

I have been saving up and considering buying something new, now I am just going to keep saving up and buy more ammo for the weapons I do have.

Looks like I drug my heels too long on building that AR. It's really not going to be cheap now.

I don't think you'll see a jump in prices on handguns but I think there will be a big price jump on AR type rifles as well as a HUGE jump on the price of ammunition. Start stocking up and start reloading your own ammo. It's going to be a LOOOOOONG 4 years.

At least I still have the EBR I bought the last go-around. I guess I'll be spending the money left in my gun budget for the year on a reloading setup and extra PMAGs instead of parts for that AR build I was thinking about - I can only stand so much price-gouging.
