Filed under: investing, stock market, Todd Harrison Forget stocks and bonds, the real money's in guns. For it's part, the Obama administration says it has no plans to enact such legislation and supports the Second Amendment right to bear arms. |

I mean, pirates are all over the news, for God's sake. Pirates!
Thats right and the best kind, DEAD!
I too have bought ammo and components with resale in mind. And if the prices drop, no big. I won't need to buy for some time to come.

They don't plan on banning guns... Yet PBS had a segment on the news hour last night... High marks for the CATO guy.
SWHC does not have the fundimentals to support its price. I've owned it before. It did not have the fundimentals then. It is not a buy and hold sort of stock. Ride it at your own risk.

I picked up a couple of stripped AR lowers yesterday for this very reason.

This has a downside- decreased availability of reloading components changes decision on what calibers, or even future purchase of guns(certainly has here). Regular shooters and hobbyists will turn elsewhere as higher prices are only drawing speculators, (is this post ban worth more than this post-post ban??) Last time this happened it took cheap sks and cheap ammo to get people back into the sport. Decreased product improvement , no new ideas , shooting games get hit the most, trap, skeet, etc. |

yes -- or the gold market-- the biggest problem with both is you have to take delivery.

I have always found guns a better value than stocks, since stocks are pretty useless without an action and barrel.

Folks ain't got a sense of humor no more. They don't laugh they just get sore.
Need to follow the rules. Just hard to determine which set of rules to follow Now the rules have changed again. |

It will be true that recent volatility in financial markets is driving Americans to seek alternative ways to protect.

American indians sat on gold for centuries, and it had no value to them. When whitemen appeared the things that the indians were most interested in was tools (guns, knives, and other metal tools) that could help with their survival, but they couldn't make themselves. Gold had no value to the indians because it had no use and they had no concept of it's value.
If a disaster were to occur depending on what kind it is, gold could be worthless. Tools on the otherhand could have more to do with survival than all the gold in Fort Knox. You can't tighten a coupling to your water supply with a gold brick like you can with a pipe wrench, and you need water to live.

Life's concerns should be about the 120lb pack your trying to get to the top of the mountain, and not the rock in your boot.
