I am a far leftist who runs a 500+ liked antifa page. I also only see the body armor ads.
Firearms, ammunition (if you can even find it), plate carriers, plates, optics, NVGs, holsters - all of it is selling for at least 200% what it was one year ago right now. Everyone running ad campaigns is seeing ROI > 3 and dramatically increasing spend.
Once bids rise to the point that ROI is normalized, we'll see less of this.
(generally speaking, people rush to buy guns whenever the specter of gun control comes up, because they think that'll be the last chance they get.)
And it's mostly in their head. The right was fired up for eight long years driving up the price of guns and ammo while Obama was president, meanwhile he never made even a token effort at gun control.
That's not actually true, there are incidents like the ammo import ban to automatically prohibiting elderly people receiving financial assistance.
The fact that the gun control you were expecting didn't happen doesn't mean that none did.
I’m not trying to put you on the spot. Feel free to ignore this message.
