Gun sales are spiking in the run-up, and as a result of, Obama's election. My local gun store owner told me the same. He's promised to "save" a couple of things for me, because there's something of a shortage...supply and demand, you know.
In fact, I'm on my way there now.
Run, don't walk, to your local gun store. Don't forget the ammo. That's the easiest way to render our guns useless, even if they can't ban them outright. Biden already tried that. His bill would have banned all rifle ammo...casting it as "armor piercing". It didn't pass. But it just might with the upcoming Congress.

Abstract
The choices of potential victims and of criminals with respect to weapons were analyzed in an economic game framework. It was found, using National Crime Victimization Study data, that victims who have and use guns have both lower losses and lesser injury rates from violent crime. It was also found that the victim's choice of having a gun is not independent of the criminal's choice. Based on these findings, the consequences of having a greater portion of the potential victims being armed were analyzed. It was found that this would reduce both losses and injuries from crime as well as both the criminals' incentives to commit violent crimes and to be armed."
Absolutely correct.
