I just heard a rumor that Palmetto State Armory has sold out to the bare walls and sent everyone home.

Lot of stories floating around from FFLs across the country talking about how lots of obvious newcomers have been buying guns in the last week.

I'll start shooting when they run out of cold beer :mrgreen: or when they cut off the internet and I cannot get porn! :evil:

Per Josiah of PSA;

The only area of PSA's business that is affected right now is the retail stores (closed) - everything else including online sales is running normal.

Pretty sure the fracking industry is done, never was a net-profitable industry as they depended on regular cash inflows from loans and investors to keep running. The workers will go home but all the debt will remain.
