    I’ve got a friend from Buffalo who still has family that live there. Crazy to me to have to wait for a firearm. With my CCP In NC I can walk in and walk out with a gun same day.

    as far as the buying frenzy.. people just get worried and start buying shit that doesn’t make sense for them (I.e the toilet paper crisis)

    folks that don’t usually buy firearms are now buying them..

    My main area of irritation is I have a bow sitting in the shop that I’ve paid for and am waiting for parts to be shipped..

    One explanation is that government reach always seems to extend in a crisis. Never know what they'll decide to do with their emergency powers.

    NC has some protection there for folks that have their concealed permit. Granted martial law trumps that

    Was a Cabela's recently (before the whole social distancing thing) as I needed a couple of boxes of 38 Special...it was all gone btw. The gun counter was insanely busy. I was people watching/cringing all at once. The staff is always good at telling folks to point guns up and behind the gun counter when they're handling them. I counted at least 6 people completely disregard that and fan the crowd...ugh. I'm guessing these were people who have never owned a firearm.

    Maybe this will make people more 2A IDK. I'm sure a lot of these people buying up all this shit have probably never touched a gun which scares me a bit. Maybe it will make people realized how important it is to have the right to protect yourself though.

    Had to unload the safe and move it to get new carpet today so I figured it was a good time to do a nice family photo...

    Does the fact that I see them not in correct order based on height indicate a mild case of OCD?

    :D

    Nope, it’s the OPs fault and obviously doesn’t really care about them. Just going to have to raffle them off to us now.

    I'll settle if he donates the ones out of order to me.

    I mean if you don’t take care of your children, they get taken away. :notsure:

    I’d be willing to bet that the people in this thread are some of the few that aren’t in a panic to stockpile ammo right now. We already learned that lesson. lol

    No, because you didn't notice that they are grouped by type and then ordered based on height within those groups :crazy:

    Edit: Looking at the picture again now it's bothering me that I put the Mauser on the wrong side of the other bolt actions. It should've been grouped with the FAL and SKS as a battle rifle, albeit an outdated one. I may or may not have a slight OCD problem myself. :anonymous:
