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 firearm sales, which are heavily influenced by political elections and media coverage. Sales often spike before elections due to fear of potential restrictions and drop afterward when perceived threats subside. Manufacturers and retailers also adjust production and inventory based on these predictable cycles, leading to price fluctuations and clearance sales.
