    I think this may be what you are talking about...

    I have never bought a gun so I don't know exactly.

    As an aside: imagine how pissed everyone would be if this happened when Obama was president. That probably would've started the next civil war. (Or the ongoing civil war if you want to argue that...)

    It happened during Obama as well. Gun prices soared after Sandy Hook and systems were backed up. Why did you go political?

    I didn't realize it happened during Obama.
    I stand corrected.

    I was trying to make a joke.
    If you remember... many claimed that once Obama was in that guns would be outlawed.
    So... I joked saying that if you tried to buy a gun during Obama's presidency and couldn't.... people would think their fears were realized and start a war.

    I guess my joke wasn't any good.

    That administration tried pushing so many gun bills it’s sickening. Now the left is pushing to defund the police, lol.

    I purchased a 3D printer and will start making some guns soon.

    Obama actually had a respect for gun rights more than most give him credit for.


    ”In this country, we have a strong tradition of gun ownership that's handed from generation to generation. Hunting and shooting are part of our national heritage. And, in fact, my administration has not curtailed the rights of gun owners—it has expanded them, including allowing people to carry their guns in national parks and Obama repeatedly expressed support for the Second Amendment, explaining:

    "If you’ve got a rifle, you’ve got a shotgun, you’ve got a gun in your house, I’m not taking it away."

    During Obama's reign, finding .22LR was a challenge. It was so bad that even when I wasn't looking for .22lr, if I saw a brick of it at the store, I bought it before somebody else could.

    Yes, apparently a lot of folks here dont understand humor. It’s weird.

    Obama was the greatest gun salesman ever. You couldn’t get certain kinds of ammo during his time, and it cycled through different shortages..22, 9mm, .380, all at different times. He signed two laws good for gun owners. He got rid of Reagan’s ban on carrying guns in national parks. And he allowed guns in checked baggage on Amtrak. Both laws helped gun owners.

    Trump only did one thing good thing, stopping Obama’s requirement that VA hospital doctors put personal mental health info into the NICS system. But Trump outlawed bump stocks, so there’s that.
