As we’ve noted here, Americans are stampeding to gun stores like never before. With a declaration of a national emergency, a lot of people who hadn’t bought guns before have decided that now is the time to procure a firearm to make sure they can defend themselves and their families.
If it it goes bang, people are pretty much buying it.
While a lot of local gun stores’ inventories have been decimated, the big brown trucks are still operating and rest assured, gun retailers will be restocking.
If your local seller’s shelves are empty, though, there are plenty of online options. Rainier Arms has AR-15’s like a very reasonably priced Faxon Ascent or AR-10’s like the Devil Dog MRP-10 in stock.
Brownells has plenty of full-size handguns like a Smith & Wesson M&P9 M2.0 or a SIG SAUER P226 Legion.
Looking for a shotgun? Palmetto State Armory has the Remington 870 Express or a Mossberg 500 Field in stock.
Yes, lots of items are out of stock, but plenty of online retailers have the kinds of guns people are looking for most in their warehouses.
In short, there are plenty of guns out there to be had. You may not be able to get one today, but depending on where you live and your local laws, you should be able to get one in a reasonable amount of time.
Are you buying? If so, what?
