Does anyone else see the irony in these bills? Every time they pop up, a lot of people who have been putting off the purchase of an AK or AR, seem to step up their purchases of these firearms in order to get one or 5 or 10 before they can't. This creates a big marketing tool for manufacturers and retailers and people stock up. I wonder how many firearms were purchased due to this vs what would have been purchased if we were never worried about losing our right to do so? I would venture to guess that it would be at least 5 times more.
