With a large number of first time gun buyers due to this virus, I am wandering if gun club memberships will increase including more people joining the NRA.

Heck if they're not selling guns or ammo they have been closed in WI. I hope it doesnt hurt them.

With the gun club ranges being closed till further notice, that interest will be on hold . No trap, skeet, or any other activities are happening here . They all held out as long as they could.

Personally I really doubt it many of these first time buyers are panic buying and not really interested in guns or shooting it’s simply a reaction to being more scared of what might happen then they are or guns

The most likely thing that will happen is that once the panic is over there will be a lot of used guns hitting the market or being stashed in the back of a closet and largely forgotten about and them going right back to their positions that they held before this all happened

Or I could see them even taking a harder stance because they would not of had to buy a gun if other people did not have one

Only a few will make the connection that in the end your safety is in your own hands and can not be regulated by the government passing a law or ban on something
