Excellent! I was just thinking this very thing.
I was by Hyatt's this afternoon. Lines were out the door and down the sidewalk. One line for guns, one line for ammo. Cabela's had roped queue lines and restaurant style vibrating "pucks" to alert your turn.

Meanwhile in NY, Gov. Cuomo has decreed liquor stores to be essential businesses. No shit.

New York liquor stores are considered 'essential' businesses, will stay open

They aren't ready yet... Have to get enough troops on the ground before they close the gun shops and liquor stores...

The guy is a player from Chicago. He knows what a mess he has helped create. Now he doesn't want anymore blood on his hands when someone legally able to purchase a firearm isn't able to and gets killed. All because he shut down the LGS. Smart move.

I wish NY would declare gun related businesses necessary so Numrich could send me my parts.
