I've been doing a good bit of "opportunity buying" of gun stocks--Smith & Wesson and Ruger in particular--but no new firearms, parts, or ammunition recently.
No buying too recently for me. Got some more reloading stuff at Christmas as gifts, but no primers or powder. Don't feel like paying the absurd (my opinion) prices for things I don't NEED right now...will wait for everyone to calm down and then I'll jump back in.
Not me. I've been shocked by what's been going on. People that were basically anti gun are now worried about losing their right to own so they're going out and buying up things. I've seen this with many young female nurses where I work.
I wouldn't call it panic buying but I did get out and get a couple of revolvers I've been wanting. I figured I better do it while there's still a variety to choose from but I almost waited too long and had to settle on the display pieces.
no panic buy here either. sadly tho, a planned purchase that i was saving most the year for and waiting for my xmas bonus to put me over the top, will have to wait until the bubble bursts...
No panic buying here... I am however kicking myself in the a** for waiting to buy my next handgun! The frustrating part is, I have no one to blame but myself! I've decided to wait, I just can't justify paying an extra $100 for what I want because of a political climate!
No panic buying here. But i would have if i would. Im new to guns, just got my first one last year. I bought an ak variant. Its a lot of fun one i just want more.
No panic buying here. However, it has been quite entertaining at some of the local gun shops. I was in the market for another AR, but I think I'll let the panic prices subside before making a purchase.
