Americans bought a record number of firearms in 2020 amid a year that challenged our conventional wisdom about civil liberties, showed us the delicate balance between law and order and even strained the country’s supply chains.
While gun sales generally increase in presidential election years, 2020 has been one for the record books, and it still isn’t over. President Donald Trump has vowed to continue fighting to challenge the Nov. 3 election results that show he lost to Democrat Joe Biden in a number of key swing states.

S&W has been one of the few to deliver consistently. Glocks are next most available, then everything else is spotty.
Consider the 7 million new gun owners. If they get 100 rounds each, that’s 700 million rounds.

I was well enough armed after 2016, no need to expose myself to further fed scrutiny by buying more.

WUT!? You don’t trust the feds?
Adding yet another caliber, exacerbating my ammo inventory issues.
If there really is 7 million NEW first timers, that’s scary.
Most will have no safety training.
Most operational training is watching TV shows.
Most have never actually thought about shooting another person.
And most are probably democrats...
When we sell a non-gun owner a gun, we ALWAYS recommend that they get at least basic safety training and we give them the card of someone we know is a good trainer. We have no way of knowing how many take our advice, but I hope that it is more than a few.
