Vermont gun dealers see spike in sales after Biden win, Capitol riot

Firearm sales have soared in Vermont since last week’s riots at the U.S. Capitol, according to local gun dealers. The uptick comes as President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration approaches and as Democrats are poised to take control of the U.S. Senate.
