One Response to “Americans Buy Record Numbers of Guns for Christmas”
The one reason not mentioned in the article is that there were a lot of reduced prices on guns in Nov. and Dec. Sporting goods stores were hurting for business as much as any other business. A $650 Bushmaster rifle was selling for $500 with a free holo sight. (I came this close…..) But, yes, the world is crazier than ever and history has shown that it’s better to be on the side that’s armed.
I didn’t get a gun for Christmas, but I did get a nice box of ammo and that was probably the best physical gift I got.
