It won't get serious until she proposes some legislation or gets some new judges

My guess a small one after she is elected. Like Quit Shootin said once the talk of new laws and judges, it will start.

There are without a doubt some massive ones ahead if she is elected. Depends too on what happens in the Senate and with her Supreme picks. If she can move control of the court to the liberal side as she has stated repeatedly is her goal, there is no end to what she can do thru executive order and executive action that is rubber stamped by them. She can do a complete end run around Congress. These damn Republicans who think it's ok to vote down ballot only and actually support Clinton instead of Trump are going to get massively out played. They think the Democrats play by the same rules - hell, they aren't even playing the same game.

Just wait for her to enact the royal edict that will require all ammunition (except government issued, of course) to have 'limited life' powder and/or primers.

I think it's far more likely that it will be something like a 100% tax on all firearm, ammo, and reloading component purchases. She has already advocated for something similar to that in the past. That way she can say she's increasing revenue for her social programs as well. A liberal twofer if you will.

Picked up plenty while it was cheap and plentiful. I might even sell some if the price jumps up!

SMH. The sky has been falling for 8 years and some people were certain that Obama was taking our guns, and what happened? People really need to worry about other things.

Nope. Because we were worried and kept a close eye on our 2nd amendment he wasn't able to do much. The second we let our guard down, watch out.
It ain't easy being me.

Also, we had Scalia and a 5-4 Supreme Court. We don't have that now. If that 5-4 is swapped in the other direction, even standing guard won't work. There is no overturning an out of control Supreme Court. None. Check Mate. Game and freedom's gone, over - done with. Nope. Because we were worried and kept a close eye on our 2nd amendment he wasn't able to do much. The second we let our guard down, watch out.

I just bought 2 20 round boxes of 6.8 SPC does that count as a run on ammo?

Some folks bought cheap and stacked deep during the salad days. I can see another run on stuff if it's close in the polls the next few weeks, mainly from those who are just getting into shooting. There will be a panic, but not by those who lived through the last two.

Panic no. But I will never stop buying I have probably 10 times more than my wife thinks I should have but it still isn't 1/10th of what I want to have Some folks bought cheap and stacked deep during the salad days.

I would be happy with 1000 rounds of each caliber I own. Im close on a couple calibers and have a few thousand 22LR all are burried in different locations in air tight barrels with dehumidifiers

I just bought 2 packs of hornady 120 sst's and 1 box of fed eagle fmj's
getting ready for the run!!
my 500 rounds of 556 and 556 upper will go up for sale when it gets crazy. But between now and then i am going to horde as much 6.8 as I can get

Well, IDK about panic yet, but I just decided to make my SBR into a 8" 300BLK. In doing so I wouldn't be able to shoot my 223 any longer. So I was thinking maybe I'll just catch a good deal on PSA for a 16" 223 rifle and just wait it out. However their deals have been sucking lately and they have nothing I want. So today I sat down and surfed all my normal sites I use to build my AR's. Pretty much no one has stripped lowers in stock. Either they're the bottom of the barrel Anderson or the top of the line super fancy billets that cost an arm and a leg. Almost all the medium range stuff is completely gone. A month ago there was so much AR15 inventory flooding the market you could pretty much pick anything you wanted and it was in stock.
Just my 2 cents. Looks like the supply is drying up. We shall see how it goes.
