When will the firearms, ammo, and accessory supply chains catch up?

I stopped into Dillion reloading and I overheard them talking about how they had more than 75 temporary workers to handle the rush.
Good for them for being one of the few companies in the country that is actually hiring people.
 
I think the background check might fly if it didn't make a list of who has what - maybe a national firearms card (good in all 57 states), or just a NCIS check that says that it is OK to sell, but did not include what or even "if" there was a true sale... but we know what the real purpose is for the checks is, so I think it won't fly in it's present version.

.
I agree with you. I actually believe there should be a background check, but only if it could be done without being traced. But how can you do that? I will not give up my guns.

What part was "phuny and totally incorrect"? The part about Romney being the governor of one of the most anti-gun states in the union and doing nothing about it? I think if you do a little actual research you'll find, that that is actually 100% correct. Making excuses for why he didn't do anything about MA's anti-gun stance sounds like 100% chite to me, but if you want to become Governor Romney's Official Apologist, go ahead.

My point is that having a R or a D after your name means nothing as far as your stance on gun rights. Both parties have anti-gun members just as both paries have pro gun members. I know I'm not going to change your mind, but I don't follow your logic of giving free passes to politicians who just don't seem to care or are indifferent. That's as good as being an anti in my book.

I thought Mike B explained the Romney issue quite well, but you probably missed it. Who said I gave a free pass to anyone? Who did I vote for? Please let me know since you profess to know so much about politics.

If you'd like to take it offline I'd be more than happy to compare what you have done in the past 20 years for gun rights with what I've done. I've done far more than just spout rhetoric on an internet forum that is nothing more than personal chest thumping to pump up your one adoring fan - namely yourself.

I think people have figured out that nothing is going to happen in Washington.

They might be falling because there isn't anything out there to buy or prices are high enough to discourage it.

To late for that. We already have a back ground check that can be traced.
