Oldest grandson is a college senior that works part time at an area Academy Sports.

The only guns remaining in that store location are black powder guns. All ammunition is sold with the exception of a few obscure calibers, no shotgun shells remain.

Can anyone explain this phenomenon?

Poor supply chain specific to that store or Academy in general?

Guns are flying off the racks here, and new stock immediately takes it's place.

While I was eyeballing a Ruger Alaskan .454 Casull yesterday at Ace Hardware, I bet 4 guns were sold. In probably less than 20 min.

Walmart here put guns/ammo away and closed early (well before dark) in case of looting. Dick's kept all their stuff on display, and had ammo, but most of the 12 gauge is gone.

Supposed to be a peaceful riot...I mean demonstration at the county seat tomorrow. Town of about 6000. lol Dunno about local guns. I feel kindly guilty that I just walked down to my garden with only a .40 and the clip that was in it. No scheduled riots in my garden.

I went into Academy killing some time this week. The ammo and firearms were about sold out. Id say they had about 15-25% shelves and racks full of merchandise.

Grandson’s roommate’s Dad is a store Manager for another Academy location and said much the same as you’ve described. They’re scrambling to restock.

Sounds to me like we've got all these guns under control, for sure. The libs can now STFU.

I wonder if this is regional or if the big stores are where the newbies head first?

A local gun store and range seemed to have a decent inventory of semi-auto handguns and black rifles, among other guns. I was in there today and they sure were busy, range and store.
