Most of us who use our computers for business, also find time to do some on-line trading in a variety of corporate stock. And during the last 18 months or so, just about anything that had a "dot.com" after its name, produced unbelievable returns to those who jumped to get in. But now, things are different. Investing in these high flyers is becoming increasingly risky and volatile. Internet stocks (for example) have dropped significantly, the DOW is off more than 1200 points from its high. So what can we invest in with Y2K looming ahead, with so many uncertainties hanging over our heads?
How about investing in firearms (and their related parts, magazines, and ammunition)?
If you already enjoy firearms, shooting, hunting, going to gun shows, etc., what better way to invest your cash than into firearms? Look at the returns on high capacity magazines enjoyed by those who were savvy enough to buy them before 1994. Look at the prices of military semi-auto rifles, shotguns, and combat handguns.
We all know that markets are driven up and down by the economics of supply and demand. Now, items that contain the words "pre-ban" have a special meaning to investors, nearly as much as "dot.com" has had. The latest issue of Blue Book of Gun Values has an excellent preface containing editorials written by a number of people in the gun industry and in shooting sports. One of them specifically deals with firearms as investment. The sense of this particular article deals with the direct relationship to supply and demand, and the almost predictability of future firearm prices.
And its not just firearms that have and will skyrocket as more and more legislation is passed in Congress, its accessories, parts, magazines, and ammunition. I've been watching the bidding of an original Ruger Mini-14 factory folding stock on www.auctionarms.com, and the last I looked it was bidding close to $400 (just for a stock)! We all know how expensive Glock high cap magazines are. Do you think the prices are going to come down, anytime soon? Ammunition like Black Talon and anything armor piercing is extremely hot right now. Why? Because you cannot get them over the counter anymore. Same for those nearly black market prices on Steyr AUGs, H&Ks, Galils, UZIs, and anything else that has a folding stock, flash hider, high cap magazines, or is covered by the Assault Weapons Ban.
Threats to the firearms markets by frivolous lawsuits, rabidly anti-gun politicians, judges, and increasingly socialist education in our schools can only do one thing to the prices of firearms...increase them.
So while you're investigating a Bloomberg report on a potentially hot new company, think about investing in something that is akin to a "sure thing"...firearms. And, you can shoot these investments, defend your family with them, and defend your freedom with them (if some of these socialists in Washington D.C. get cute on Y2K).
Don't tell me about Dishwipe.com, tell me what you think the next hot firearm investment will be.
