go look at an online gun shop

search shotguns , sort by price low to high and prepare to be amazed at the lack of almost anything pump shotgun

there so seem to be some Winchesters available not sure why they are and Rem , Mossberg and almost everything else is sold out.

try searching 9mm handguns , what is normally a big list if your looking for a 9mm handgun under 600 dollars at buds that is less than 20 guns yesterday
when you took out the guns I had never even heard of before , derringers and used 1951 Italian police guns it was a few S&W sheilds and a CZ

oh and the Remingtion R51 apparently no one can sell those even to new buyers , must have heard about the recalls

looks like they just got some stock in there is actually a glock in the search now

Maybe now would be a great time to try to sell my Benelli Nova 12 ga 3.5" camo shotgun but I think my grandson would be mad at me ha ha .

I did stop in at a local shop Saturday , racks were full of guns , they have been having limited hours but have been open , they had closed for a few weeks while they figured stuff out.

I was there the Tuesday before they closed and wasn't sure if they were going to have any thing left to sell by the end of the week. but they had many orders in before they closed and those orders trickled in while closed for about 3 weeks.

AR items on Gunbroker are picking up at least the lookers are increasing but that will turn into buyers down the road. PSA has AR builds still not cheap but several pistol kits.

Guns are not as important as the ammunition, once you have a few. Ammunition is hard to find right now in the brands and calibers I want at a reasonable price.

now that walmarts have started selling guns again , they had stopped for a while here every store either had a sign up or emptied the rack and turned out the light

some have some

probably not as many business and police cars burning in Rapid city as there were else where.

in the town and county I live in where it seems every kid has a shotgun by 12yo there are still shotguns on the shelf to buy.

Once stimulus checks hit mail boxes, guns flew out of shops.

Have wondered what the wives bought with their checks?

I would bet there are 4000+ pump shotguns on Gunbroker right now. I think I could find about anything I wanted.

Looks like I'll have to try and salvage my cargo from that boating accident.

People used to say I was silly and ask "why do you need all that ammo and toilet paper." I said there are some things I hate to run out of.
They used to say that anyway
