Gun and Ammo Stocks Soar as Demand Keeps Growing
Current events and the prospects of more restrictive gun laws are driving sales.
Last Thursday, it was back to Cabela's for me and a longtime friend, my second trip this month, and a trip it is since the closest location is about 80 miles away. It's been fascinating to see how consumer demand for guns and ammunition has been driven by current events as well as by the prospects of more restrictive gun laws on the horizon, and this trip furthered that narrative.
Gun demand has soared this year, leaving supplies short, and that was very evident once again in the depleted Cabela's gun inventory. In addition, ammo shelves were nearly empty, many types of ammunition are nearly impossible to find, but there was an interesting dynamic that played during our visit.
