The current buying hysteria got me thinking of the economics of producing AR's and mags.
I read somewhere that the "guestimate" of total magazines of all types in US is in the hundreds of millions, and that there are 4-5 million semi-automatic AR type rifles here as well.
Does anyone know details of actual production capability?
I'm guessing that there won't be a federal AWB or mag ban, so we will see maximum AR and magazine production for at least year to satisfy demand.
How many magazines have been sold in the last month?
Any idea on how much money has been spent in the last month on firearms and accessories?
I consider myself a casual enthusiast, and my assortment of USGI and pistol mags has been fine for my needs. After seeing how fast the gun banners can jump on a tragedy, I have plans to acquire a lifetime supply of various magazine types that I use as soon as the supplies are back up.
Magazines, ammunition, lower receivers, and on, and on.
Is everyone thinking the same thing?
Magazines are inexpensive, mass produced items that can be produced by the million. Does anyone have an idea of how many magazines are going to be sold in the next year if every gun enthusiast feels like me?
