Alpha Dog Firearms in Phoenix, Arizona, responded to Robert “Beto” O’Rourke’s AR-15 confiscation pledge by running a “Beto Special” and selling out of the guns in four hours.
On August 17, 2019, O’Rourke tweeted about visiting a gun show in Arkansas. One of the photos he tweeted showed a sign advertising AR-15s for $395:
In Arkansas, I listened to gun owners and sellers—and appreciated hearing their perspectives. But as the plan we released yesterday says, if I’m president, you wouldn’t be able to buy weapons of war for $395. You wouldn’t be able to buy them at all. pic.twitter.com/Pz8KuFq9Tt

O’Rourke used his time at the September 12, 2019, Democrat debate to make clear his plans to take AR-15s from Americans, saying, “Hell yes, we’re going to take your AR-15.”
Alpha Dog Firearms responded by running a special in which it sold AR-15s even cheaper than the $395 price Beto found in Arkansas. It priced them for $349.99, calling it a “Beto Special.” The rifles sold out in less than four hours.
Alpha Dog Firearms explained via a Facebook post, “Our $349.99 AR deal sold out in less than 4 hours. We’re trying to process the orders and work on getting more special deals for our good friend gun grabber Beto.”
The National Shooting Sports Foundation reported there are more than 16 million privately owned AR-15s in the United States.

WE SHOULD GO VOTE THIS SORRY SON OF A BITCH IN OFFICE, AND GIVE THEM THE WAR THEY SO DESPERATELY DESIRE………
How’s that for a F.Y.
O’Rourke ?

Both excellent prices.
I’m highly skeptical concerning the quality of such a low-priced weapon, however.
Sure won’t be “ military grade”
Lol poor gun grabbers
That & ammo are two things you NEVER want to bet your life on when it comes to quality, durability & reliability.
No refunds… if you’re dead.
Me too NWO, I spent almost 5 times that on my BMC.
I’ll take quality over quantity anyday.
NICE!!!
Bet that’s a beautiful weapon, Bill.
Wouldn’t mind owning one myself.
Beto did more for our cause than he realizes, and he made himself the laughing stock of all intelligent people.
And here’s more countering merchandise from the creative: From t-shirts, to mugs, to… “Hell Yes!” leads to Hell No!!:

The puke backed down… to a certain point, anyway.
Now he wants to FINE AR owners who don’t simply hand their weapons over to the jackbooted thugs (sent the article in).
Only thing he can see is The Whitehouse. There ain’t no double-speak he won’t court to arrive there.
.
Ever notice how sales spike when an idiot spews gun-grabbing intent? Perhaps the “idiots” have investment capital in firearms manufacturers, and we just gave them a blast of dividends. I haven’t followed any money, but my guess is we’ve been had. It fits their M.O. rather nicely.
Is not money trumped by justice and guns?
🙂

That it is.
