    Default New gun sales record for June?

    Records have been broken in April and May for firearm sales. Will there be a 3 month consecutive sales record?
    Judging by low inventories of guns and ammo, I can't help but wonder how bad the economy really is. Are people skipping lunch for long periods of time to buy a case of 9mm?

    I don't know-- in order for the sales momentum to continue, there have to be guns available to buy. It seems like pretty much everything I look for is out of stock.

    If I could get my hands on stock I'd be busy as hell. Hoping to have some handguns in a week or so.

    I think this is the first run on guns in which I have not bought a gun!

    Stocking up on mags.

    I have not yet spent a single penny on guns, ammo, or accessories this year... First time since 2007. The massive buying I had done since 2008, and the lessons learned about panic buying (buy them cheap and stack them deep, during 2017 - 2018), afford me of my inactivity.

    Not as if I didn't even try to spend money on guns. I am waiting on a few Garands on order from CMP right now. Quoted wait time is up to 60 days.

    This begs the question, did the firearms industry cut production as a result of the virus causing more havoc with demand?

    With all of the previous gun buying binge periods in recent history, who the heck by now doesn't already have what they want? And as per usual, our messaging must really suck if we have this many gun owners in the country yet we're still under attack for our rights. The anti gun political movement should be crushed on the pavement like a cigarette butt but our side STILL in 16 years since the Clinton ban sunset hasn't gotten our s*** together.

    With 92 plus million firearm owners in the country how do we have so many anti gun politicians? At one-time gun owners were considered an effective voting block. At one time anti gun legislation proposals would never be discussed in an election year.
    How things have changed in the face of more gun owners than ever before.
