    Gun Show Was Packed

    I went to the Nations Gun Show in Chantilly, VA this afternoon. It was absolutely packed but this year was different. This year there were a bunch of anti-gun protesters outside and a few inside who were completely ignored. The recent events and the pressure to limit the sale of firearms has fueled a run on guns. Some creep gave me a bunch of crap while I bought a gun but the cops ran them off in about 30 seconds.

    I was looking for a Sig 226 Tactical Ops (9mm) but had to settle for a more expensive model because all of the 9mm versions of that model were sold out. The only Tactical Ops models they had in a full size were .40 cal and I just don't want a .40 caliber. Tomorrow I'm going back to look for a 7.62 rifle if I can find a decent one under $6,000.00.

    The protesters can kiss my butt, I intend to own firearms.

    We never had weather like this before they started messing around with that internet stuff.

    Obama gonna take all our guns!
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    From the practical standpoint, now is definitely the time to sell off all the semi auto rifles and 10,000 reloading components I stocked up on during the Clinton Assault Weapons ban and Hillary ammo tax scare. Now is the time to be selling firearms and not buying!

    Well as long as we are on the subject, does anyone own a .40 cal and can they give me their impressions of the .40 vs 9mm.

    Go with the .40 S&W. There's a reason law enforcement agencies are switching over to .40 cal from 9mm.

    I'm seriously thinking about it but I have heard the .40 is harder to control than the 9mm but has way more knock down power.

    Yes. Stopping power and it's about shoot to kill and not prevention or disarming a situation.
