Hi everybody, I think I've picked the wrong time to get into shooting, and I would greatly appreciate some advice from some folks who are familiar with the climate and this hobby. I'm in the market for a pistol (home defense), a shotgun (home defense/hunting) and at least one rifle (prob a carbine).
I normally spend a lot of time researching and learning about my choices, but it looks like I may have to see what I can get my hands on for a reasonable price and choose based on price and availability.
In your opinion, will the current frenzy die down before more weapons get locked down? Would it be worth it to wait or is that a risky proposition? What weapons are likely to get more tightly regulated?
Where would you recommend going to not get ripped off? - and what should I use to check prices to see how badly I'm being gouged?
Thanks, and I apologize if what I'm asking is basic, but I've searched the net and not found any resources that I trust enough to base decisions off of.
