Post Senate Runoff Gun Show

I spent the day the the Kerry Murphy Promotions' Gun Show in Texarkana, AR today. While there were some slow times, especially near the end of the day, the show was mobbed for the most part. I guess being that Christmas has come & gone, that some folks are getting their stimulus checks already, and that the runoff election for the senate seats in GA has been decided with both seats going to the Dems - people are buying as much as they can now in anticipation of the gun & ammo shortages getting even worse under the new administration. My bet is the Dems will legislate a 35 to 50% federal tax on ammunition and firearms (or at least on ammo) and that will be one of the first things they push through after January 20th.

All the best,
