I'm betting most of it is hype from the gun dealer and investors

just like the recent real estate years. As such, there is going to be
disappointment gun investors soon as well.

If attempts at new gun laws miss their mark, which I suspect, a lot of
people investing now are going to loose money in even the short run. I
know
people that have committed as much as 150k to the purchase of assault
rifles
assuming they will soon be illegal. Many of them paying top dollar even
at
today's prices. I'm betting prices will hold for the next 10 years or
more
at best.

I think that I should sell one gun that I do not need.


That would be my guess, but I have be wrong (many times) before. I just see
how hard the dealers have been pushing the hype ever since list spring or
summer. I have a good friend that's a gun dealer, and he has been ragging me
with Obama doom for a year now, but I'm just not buying it. I think the Dems
learned there lesson on the Brady bill.

I think the majority of people have come to realize that gun laws only
effect the law abiding people, and the law abiding people are not the
problem, not matter how well armed they may be.
