    Question for those of you who own plenty of guns that you don't plan on selling. At what price point do you start to take profit? 300%? 500%? 2,000%?

    Things went crazy during the last panic. $5,000 to $10,000 plain Jane semi ARs. At what point do you say "I've got a few ARs. I could let a couple go for $5000 each"?

    I think if Trump wins, we won't see that. But in the unlikely event Biden wins, in the insterstitial between election and inauguration, I expect gun prices to soar to astronomical levels. Incomprehensible levels.

    What is the tipping point there? Do you really want to try to balance being a warlord when everything goes to ****, and being "Man" in The Road, and having 2 rounds in a revolver to take care of you and "Boy" so you don't feel it when the cannibals get you? :eek:



    None of us can predict where the prices will go. Back around 2000 I started selling NFA stuff as I figured it would never go any higher and it helped pay for my son's college. Boy howdy was that a mistake.

    As of right now it would take $2K + to break even on most of my AR's. So no I DOUBT TO EVER SEE ANY PROFIT FROM THEM BUT i DID NOT BUILD THEM TO SELL ACTUALLY. Damned caps lock...:):

    Now $3K would get my attention I am sure.

    Talking to an LGS today. PSA AR 15 went there for $1,300.
    Anderson AR 15 is marked for $850, and has received looks.
    Bunch of other budget ARs there marked prob 40% higher than normal, and they're still selling out.
    safe to say the panic is here.

    If Biden wins and the NY AG is successful is disbanding the NRA it's a very real and distinct possibility we will have an "Assault weapons" ban and a limit to 10 rounds or less in mags.

    Wonder how they will classify NFA stuff, like belts.
