The current market (Summer 2025) presents a favorable opportunity for purchasing firearms, particularly used ones, as prices are generally decreasing due to seasonal lulls and market adjustments. While new firearms have seen inflation-matched price increases, used firearms are significantly more affordable. Limited edition or dealer-exclusive models remain in high demand and may still command higher prices or involve wait times, but standard firearms are readily available at reasonable prices. Selling used firearms is currently less advantageous due to lower buy-back values.
This video discusses the cyclical nature of gun sales, heavily influenced by US presidential elections and media coverage of firearm-related events. Sales often surge before elections due to fear of potential restrictions and drop significantly afterward when perceived threats subside. Manufacturers also adjust production and inventory based on these predictable cycles, leading to price fluctuations and clearance sales on older stock.
