Gun control activists move against safe and legal gun shows in California
- Despite the safe and appropriate setting of gun shows across California, many gun control advocates cite dubious statistics about gun shows to help support proposed legislation to end gun shows in the state
- Out of all gun exhibitors at gun shows, only about 30 percent actually sell guns or ammunition which may not be acquired the same day
- Many gun shows sell merchandise, collectibles, food, and include vendors that teach others about firearm safety/issues important to California gun owners
With US Gun sales on the rise, some ammunition shelves are left empty
- During the pandemic, firearms have seen record sales which have resulted in a shortage of ammunition in the US
- The shortage of ammunition is heavily impacting law enforcement agencies, recreational shooters and hunters, and those seeking personal protection
- While there is adequate supply in some areas, others are left wanting
