Totalitarians through history say the same thing.Don't get me wrong folks. I am a STRONG 2nd AMENDMENT SUPPORTER. If you are are Legally allowed to buy and possess firearms and do so responsibly, have what you will and enjoy! My question is, am I alone feeling a little uneasy about individuals trying to buy an inordinate amount of firearms on a daily basis from this forum? If you think I'm offbase, let me know why.
There is Florida, Alabama and Maine. Everyone else is a Yankee.A Mainer he was!

T.J., Maine is lost. Have you been up there lately? I'll give you a call this weekend. Way different from when I left there.There is Florida, Alabama and Maine. Everyone else is a Yankee.
I believe Bill was only stationed in Maine during his service time and remained a bit after. I think I remember him saying he returned home. IE: Cantonment Fla. I could be mistaken due to bad memory and worse hearing but fairly sure.I still got couple handi rifles of his.
45/70 and 500 s&w. He was a Yankee too
Other than that, he ain't missing much : )I still have two rifles I bought from Sawman. I wish he was still here. I would love to know what his thoughts were on this thread.
The $10-15,000 of HKs I sold back in '09-'10 are worth $40-50K now. And I don't even want to talk about the C&Rs."Some like to treat them as an investment like gold and silver."
Wish I had bought every full automatic I could have 25 years ago. Bet they hold the record for most appreciating.
Think of all the people that didn't register their full autos or sold them because they didn't want to register.....even pre ban fire arms and mags are worth a lot nowThe $10-15,000 of HKs I sold back in '09-'10 are worth $40-50K now. And I don't even want to talk about the C&Rs.
What I own now is but a pittance...
Money in the bank During the 94 ban these were $75 each or $100 at a gunshow. I collect em for fun. If ya got some I'm in.Think of all the people that didn't register their full autos or sold them because they didn't want to register.....even pre ban fire arms and mags are worth a lot now

Ya Augusta and Lewiston don't help.I personally know and trained with quite a few ready MF's in midcoast Maine. Southern Maine from like Freeport down is lost, because the greater Portland area has become a suburb of Boston. Real shame. The two congressional districts are mapped by population, and it's clearly Portland versus the whole rest of the state. Left vs right. In 2014 or so maybe 2015 there were so few people after all the tourists left that I looked on the official census and compared it to home here... there were more residents in just Escambia and Santa Rosa County than the entire state of Maine
L-A will be a wild running gun battle should the SHTF. The Lewiston Armory gun show is always the biggest and best in the whole state, every year. Several of the best FFL cop shops and pawn shops are in the L-A area tooYa Augusta and Lewiston don't help.

To each his own. I've managed to survive by expecting/planning for the worst based on the lowest common denominator, having more than one backup plan, and 100% enjoying it when things turn out better.I don't necessarily think they are going that far down the rabbit hole from the op at least.
"I knew a guy, that knew a guy" in Miami, that has 4 M16s in his safe! None are registered, he knows they're worth a fortune, but is scared to try and sell them, so they just sit. Kinda sad...Think of all the people that didn't register their full autos or sold them because they didn't want to register.....even pre ban fire arms and mags are worth a lot now
