Gun sales are soaring in the US amid fears that President Obama is planning a new crackdown on the ownership of weapons.

Gun stores in America are seeing a surge in business



The country is even facing a shortage of ammunition as gun stores are besieged by customers - even though the President has insisted he is not planning new legislation.

Seven million people have applied for background record checks with the FBI in the last few months so they can obtain a gun licence.

The Guns and Ammo store in Manassas, Virginia, says it has seen a 50% rise in sales since November's election.

Deputy manager Andrew Amerine told Sky News Online: "In October last year, even in the summer of last year, people started to anticipate what was going to happen in the election and were out buying ammunition and certain types of weapons.

"Now we are seeing people who are getting their first gun because they are worried they will not be able to get them in the future."

  • What a cuck sucker that reporter is. Mother Fcker. He is demonizing guns & gun owners like there is no tomorrow.

    Somebody gotta show that guy to just report the news and not predict shit that he doesn not know anything about. Somebody gotta tell him that he is a reporter not an future teller.

    Hell, that guy gotta see my video;

  • No, we don't believe they won't try to take the weapons. We know damned well that is what they want. The very reason they are trying to get a global bill to disarm the people, and the only purpose for this is Martial Law, just like that bastard Hitler did!

  • heres the thing. he sais crimes are up because of soaring gun sales but actual statisics show the exact oppsite. violent crimes are down there will always be a shooting somewhere no matter what and that is very sad but to tell me i cant have a gun because some people have no regard to human life is insane. I would love to invite any news media to the range with my friends and i anytime i promise you they could not point out one unsafe act with a firearm being committed but why show the good side

  • Gun sales are soaring in the US ....YES YES YES FREEDOM REINS

  • The problem is the media. You only hear about the "campus shootings" and the police getting shot while entering a home. What about the millions of the rest of us who do no more than shoot at a plywood target? You'll never hear about us. Just take away the rights of millions of law abiding citizens to save a life or two. Besides smoking kills more people i think. Why not take that right away too....?

  • Fuck america, fuck them in there stupid asses

  • I do have to confess. Nothing gets peoples attention more than the sound of a gunshot. It sort of brings out the "what have I done wrong" question to mind.

  • 0:53 - 1:10 is awesome.

  • "Let me make a point here, in case this isn't becoming extremely clear. My state has gun control laws. It did not keep Hennard from coming in and killing everybody! What it did do, was keep me from protecting my family! That's the only thing that cotton pickin' law did! OK! Understand that! That's ...that's so important!"

    - Dr. Suzanna Gratia Hupp, Luby's massacre survivor

  • "Today we need a nation of minute men; citizens who are not only prepared to take up arms, but citizens who regard the preservation of freedom as a basic purpose of their daily life and who are willing to consciously work and sacrifice for that freedom. The cause of liberty, the cause of American, cannot succeed with any lesser effort."

    -- President John F. Kennedy, January 29, 1961
