If you don’t have “enough” firearms presently you aren’t going to find many available right now.

Remember when Obama was the top gun salesman? How did that change? Or is he still the top gun salesman?

At the huge online firearms site Brownells,weapons sales are up 90%, led by handguns. Ammo sales are up 30%, and web traffic to Brownells.com has been up 60%-70%.

A visit by Secrets last week to three gun stores in Virginia found two with just a handful of weapons for sale and a third where ammunition was swept off the shelves the minute it was stocked.

Conservatives have always purchased firearms. Question is, who are all these people who’ve never had background checks done before in connection with purchasing a firearm? These are not repeaters.

Looks like Obama has been replaced by BLM as the best gun sales force.

This is because everyone is voting for the Biden/Marxist Harpy ticket and arming themselves against the results they expect.

He is up there still, but a combination of Biden and Pelosi, plus key regional salemen like the mayors of Minneapolis, Seattle and Portland are up and rising stars.

Plus we must give credit to corporate promoters such as BLM, Inc. and Antifa, LLC.

Based on this poll, Trump in a landslide, which is why they are going to shove mail-in voting through so that a winner will never be able to be declared because of all the missing/fraudulent votes.

The graph is rather convincing I’d say!

More than half the NICS checks are now made up of permit checks and rechecks.

They are still high numbers, about 1.7 million gun sales in July, which is record level.

These so called “peaceful” protests have everybody worried. Soccer moms and dads in the suburbs have been shocked that BLM surround their vehicles and threaten them with harm, even with babies in the back seat. Then they call 911 and operator says we cannot do anything to disrupt the protests. So instead of police coming to assist the citizens, the citizens are warned to stay in their car and not do anything against the mob. This happened just down the street from me in northern VA.

I agree, but I think these riots etc. have shown people they really do need their own protection who otherwise didn't. Also when we all began seeing the utter rage of the Hillary losers and the unending Resistance, with Demorats, celebrities etc. threatening our President and leading that charge, people understood these were threats against them.....not just Trump.

That number is held back significantly by product availability.

There is at least one retailer (I know of) that is up over 800%

Possible trouble is it's being said by some Demorats that if there's no declared result by January then Pelosi gets in as pres....if that were to happen then we'd definatly see a revolt in America.
