Americans purchased 21 million firearms this year, according to the latest figures. The number marks a staggering increase of 73 percent over the number purchased in 2019.

Manufacturers are running 24/7 to meet the demand, except for Kimber and Henry, they are in the communist state of NY.
I added a little RGR stock today.
People aren’t stupid. Need to be ready to defend selves and friends agsibst Soroznazi tyranny coming , it appears, very soon.
If the government decides to go after any single individual with physical force, no amount of personal weaponry will protect them. And few others will have their backs when it happens.
I’d like to see a top 10 of the brands/models selling.
If each of us makes it costly enough, they won’t be able to do it for long.
“If the government decides to go after any single individual with physical force, no amount of personal weaponry will protect them.”
True, but to claim we’ll just sit back and be picked off is you projecting your apathy onto others.
This has already been posted. What made you think cut and paste clickbait was needed?

Gun sales in the United States have soared in 2020 following a year of radical-left violence against the backdrop of a global pandemic.
Americans purchased 21 million firearms this year, according to the latest figures.
The number marks a staggering increase of 73 percent over the number purchased in 2019.
The estimated 21 million guns sold was revealed in an ABC News report that quotes figures from The Trace.
ABC claims the buying surge is the result of a “perfect storm” consisting of “the pandemic, economic recession, civil unrest, and a divisive presidential election.”
The network spoke to a mother of three named Trish Beaudet, who says she has never owned a firearm before but is now buying one for herself and one for her 25-year-old daughter.

Beaudet said, “I’ve never owned a gun.
“I’ve never wanted a gun.

“I’ve never had a gun in my home.”
She then pointed to the chaos in the streets and on the news, lamenting:
It really bothers me when I watched things on the news, when you talk about the riots, and the looting, and the violence that’s happening.
Pulling a gun is the last thing I ever want to do, but I want to know that if I need to protect myself, my family, my, you know, my children, that I can do that.
Divorced mother of two and “self-described Democrat” Erin Hart told a similar story.
“My nightmare scenario would be being at home alone, middle of the night, and just myself and, you know, the boys, and, and someone coming in to harm us,” Hart said.
“When things start to hit a little closer home it kind of makes you sit up and think about it.”
November 2020 was the 11th consecutive month of record background checks for gun sales, according to Breitbart.
FBI figures showed there were 3,626,335 National Instant Criminal Background System (NICS) checks performed in November 2020, which represented more checks than were performed in any November since NICS was established.

This same scenario was true of January 2020, which witnessed more NICS checks than any January on record, and February 2020, which witnessed more NICS than any February on record, and so on, all the way through November.
ABC News concluded their report on surging gun sales with a gun control push that was focused on background checks.

Hold that thought. Last weekend, I watched twenty people, including couples and newbies, from local towns, sighting in their new rifles, in the rain, offhand, sitting and prone, out to 200 meters. They are meeting, tonight, to discuss kitting out, radios, plate carriers, and there is a running debate about the best magazines.
No one will protect you, but as for the rest of us...
We are tied together with three other units, in surrounding counties... Think of drifts of zotzed Democrats.
Top two for concealed carry are the Sig P365 and the Springfield Hellcat. S&W Shield a respectable third.
For full size guns Glock 17 or 19 and the S&W M&P 9.
Springfield XD line not far behind.
European manufacturers are not keeping up with demand.
I could sell lots of HK VP9s and Walther PPQs if I could get them. FN has only been marginally better at delivering product.
Guns are so 20th century, homemade flamethrower technology is where its at now...

I have a G-19 3rd Gen and love that gun. Not surprised it sells well for you.
Might not be any more Remingtons.
Marlin was sold to Ruger, the ammo business to Vista Outdoors, not sure if they emerge from this bankruptcy.
