Despite overall gun sales declining due to economic factors and perceived safety, there's a surge in demand for vintage and collectible military firearms. This shift is driven by a market flooded with 'cookie-cutter' modern black rifles and a renewed appreciation for historical pieces. Specific models like the M1 Garand, M1903 Springfield, Carcano M91, SKS, Swiss K31, Mauser K98, military surplus AKs, and vintage ARs are flying off the shelves, often fetching higher prices.
This video from Gunner's Firearms discusses the current market conditions for selling used firearms, advising sellers against selling when the market is flooded. The speakers, Maggie and Brian, explain that current trends favor buyers due to an influx of used guns and the release of newer firearm generations with features like optic readiness. They recommend holding onto firearms if possible, as market prices are expected to fluctuate and potentially rise in the future. For those who must sell, they advise shopping around for the best price and consider removing aftermarket optics, as they often do not recoup their cost upon resale.

The video discusses a significant surplus of firearms currently available in the U.S. This surplus is attributed to several factors, including a massive rush of new gun owners in 2020, followed by a period of reduced purchasing and increased selling as individuals reassess their needs.

The economic climate, with increased costs and potentially reduced incomes, also prompts some owners to sell firearms.

This video discusses the trend of increased firearm returns due to buyer's remorse, particularly among new owners and those who purchased during surge periods. The primary driver identified is the rapid depreciation of firearms, especially modern polymer-framed models, as manufacturers release newer generations with upgraded features, making older models less desirable and harder to resell at their original purchase price. The high cost of ammunition is also cited as a factor contributing to underutilization and subsequent regret.
