    Limits for inventory not yet advertised... "just in case"

    It's started again, but this time it's for "surplus ammo"...

    Is everyone in the country turning into a whining baby about limits and "fairness"???

    I wonder how everyone would feel about limiting all CMP purchases to those who actually participate in true marksmanship programs? That is what the CMP is all about, right? I'm a bit sick of the limit speeches really. Between the guy that wanted the near-correct Winchester for his grandpa, the 1st time buyer line jumpers and the limit guys I don't hold a very high regard for these CMP customers.

    WTF would these guys do if you had to actually participate to purchase? WAHH WAHHH WAHHH WAAHHH NOT FAIR.. NOT FAIR.. WAHH WAHHH WAHH I DEMAND!!!!! WAHH WAHH WAHHH

    My opinion of limiteers is of very low regard unless it's a private company who just wants to do it for a marketing gimmick or other reason that suits them. When I sell a rifle I sell enblocs for $1 each with a limit of 10. I do that because I want my buyers to have enblocs but I don't want to have to restock due to one buyer who wants 5000 of them.

    Those who ask for limits are always trying to benefit themselves and only themselves. They want someone else to warehouse and finance the goods that they cannot afford to buy now for a chance to buy those goods later when they MIGHT be able to afford them. When I was in grade school we called these "people" sissys. Now I just call them democrats.

    Agreed, some people can't let go fo the fact that this isn't the old DCM paid for by the G'vmt. But last I checked you can still get a rifle.......Get over it already!

    Oh and if they did limit it, we'd be like the DCM, one rifle for life. What fun is that?

    How about the "poor college student" who practically begged for someone to give him some enblocs?

    I don't have the link but shit like that really pisses me off. If you want some enblocs that bad save some damn change and buy one or two... They aren't that friggin expensive!

    If he's actually paying for his college, NO federal or state aid, I'd give him 20. If he's getting state or federal aid, he's not a college student, he's a welfare recipient.

    My daughter is a poor college student, has college loans which she will repay , living on her own,working a fulltime job making a whopping $13.50 a hour, going to school at night and online and eeking by. If she wanted enblocs I'm sure she would scrape up a few bucks for them and would hope she wouldnt beg for the

    Oh I agree, if someone actually asked me for them, I'd not respect them. If such a student did not ask but needed, I'd probably give them to them. People from the ages of 18-30 are the poorest Americans in the country while those 55 and up are the wealthiest. Still, as a society we have no qualms giving a senior discount to the guy who just drove up in his new Buick to play 18 holes while we ask full price from the Ramen noodle eating kid.

    I was in fast food for 21 years, I saw every single day how the elderly drove up in their shiny Lincolns, Cadillacs, Buicks, Grand Marquis, and wanted a free cup of coffee by virtue of simply being old and collecting the money of the poor kid going to college. Taco Bell, in the corporate stores, finally got rid of the "senior discount" on or about 1994. Many stores still give it but they are breaking corporate policy. Freebies for old people are fine, freebies for kids are frowned upon.
