Videos tagged with Pandemic Buying

The video discusses the current national gun shortage, attributing it to a combination of factors including pandemic-related fear, civil unrest, and upcoming elections. These events have driven millions of new and existing gun owners to purchase firearms and ammunition, leading to depleted stocks. Gun stores are struggling to keep inventory, often settling for available stock rather than desired items, and are even buying used guns to meet demand. The speaker anticipates the shortage will worsen as the election approaches, particularly in October, making it difficult for consumers to find specific firearms.

The video discusses the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the gun community, arguing that while panic buying can cause shortages and price hikes, a "little bit of panic" can be beneficial. It suggests that the pandemic is prompting some individuals, including those with liberal viewpoints, to consider firearm ownership for self-defense and preparedness, potentially leading to an increase in new gun owners.
