60-80% or more of those panic buyers are people who don't support gun rights. They are doing it out of fear, and view it as a temporary "necessary evil." These people, soon as the covid hysteria is done will get rid of the firearms, or throw them in a box in the closet and continue voting anti-2A and will not change their political stance. I encountered a ton of these people last panic, and have several acquaintances/coworkers/etc - and none of them have changed their political views, despite my efforts. I bought a handgun from one of these type people last panic. The whole time I am inspecting, they were giving their "guns are bad, mkay" and expressing their wishes of a "no gun America." Yet they had no issue recovering some of the money they spent on their panic purchase. Predictably, the firearm was never fired and included one full box of the cheapest ammo they could find. Logic does not apply to these people, as their entire belief system is dictated by media, celebrity, and hashtag activism.
That means as 2A supporters we can't count on any extra help and still have to contact our politicians and support the groups that help us.
