During Covid gun sales went through the roof. I havent heard anything about the sales of guns and ammo currently but I would have to think that during this period of unrest at least for the affected areas there has to be a bump.

Some things are still not available from distributors because of the pandemic. I'm guessing the stores can't get a lot of what they would normally be able to order. Just a guess.Originally Posted by UNK

A nearby gun shop is out of Taurus G2 pistols and "they have no idea" when they can get more.
I saw a Chiappa knock-off of the m92 in their case. Most of tbe lower-priced stuff (Bersa, etc) they normally have was absent. They had many Glocks and Smith revolvers. So panic buyers now might be getting a better gun on average than a few months back?
I need to check with my friend who works at his dad's shop.
REPETITION CREATES BELIEF
REPETITION BUILDS THE SEPARATE WORLDS WE LIVE AND DIE IN
NO EXCEPTIONS
Think about which side of the political 'divide' the new buyers might be. Gun world folk seem to think new owners will be on the righteous side of their politics.
That will be an empirical question.
My dealers distributor is back-ordered on almost all 9mm Sigs. If I wanted one next week my dealer wouldn't be able to get it.

Every Academy I've been to in 5 towns is picked clean. I was lucky to find an 870 on the shelf. Bought it for birds and clays. Now I can't find any clays...
I've been through 3 buying panics and its hilarious that 92s are always the last to go.
I'm thinking that riots and covid isn't going to change anyone's politics. It hasn't changed mine.

That wasn't my point. I was commenting on an implicit assumption that new gun buyers are on one wonderful side of the political spectrum. That might be mistaken as society collapses. Throwing fireworks and even Molotov cocktails might just be a beginning if folks truly think they are oppressed or are nutty ol' anarchists of various stripes.
Thats why we carry and own what we own.

Thank you for the laugh!!!!!!!!!!!
The title, put the image of someone fighting through the rioting crowd, trying to get to and into the gun store, to buy a firearm.
