Is .45 AMMO the new "Gold" coin?
 
Check your local Wal-Mart, here in town, the Wal-Marts are running out of ammo, especially .45 caliber and some shotgun ammo...and some have placed a RESTRICTION on dealers on the amount they can buy...

The pawn shop of the near future will be in someone's barn or old out building where you can trade your goods for the capital of the future...AMMO.

But, that's just my OPTIMISTIC view.

I love pawn shops, got started in Chatteling because of a pawn shop in Honolulu where a big line of sailors and marines were unloading stuff because they were shipping out...I bought cameras...and turned them over for a quick and easy profit.

TODAY, a camera is still one of the most pawned items...and they sell too.

Wonder if anyone has tried to pawn a web site...probably.

Around my area of OreeGUN....the word is that the "Obamanistas" will be making it extremely difficult, if not impossible, to get AMMO.

So....industrious, forward-thinking OreeGUNians are gathering up "Ammo-Making" tools and equipment...so that when "da Gummit" makes it near impossible to get AMMO (they've had a hard time trying to get guns)...gun-owners can make their own AMMO.

Don Alm....."waitin' fer da knock on my door", "Hi! We're from da Gummit and we're here to help you!" Yeah! Sure!
