    isn't the 7.62 a standard Nato round? if so the Demil snaffu may have had a bigger impact than people are giving credit.

    Alot of the paranoia is related to the economy (not directly to Obama). When times get tough and people loose their jobs they start acting stupid. How many recent bank robberies have been by people who were first time crooks? You will likely see a rise in muggings and home break ins also.

    Now the part of it that was triggered by the election, well, that's just plain silly in my opinion.

    If at first you don't succeed, deny you were trying in the first place.

      7.62x51 is the standard NATO round, it's very similar to the .308 Winchester. 7.62x39 is a Russian designed round that is much smaller and used in variants of the SKS and AK-47.

        Not when you look at the statements/history of the present administration. I started buying last year when prices started rising. I find it amazing how much fits in a small space
