Gun stores in Virginia are seeing sales surge as residents of the state buy up firearms and ammo trying to beat the effective dates of new gun controls.
The Fauquier Times noted, “Early indicators suggest Virginians are responding to a slate of proposed gun-control legislation with a noticeable spike in firearm background checks — a sign that gun sales are on the rise.”
For example, there were 79,846 background checks in March 2026 compared to only 47,069 checks in March 2025.
Henrico County’s Knight and Pawn owner, Ben Goldberg, said, “Every time the Democratic Party does any sort of gun legislation, gun sales go through the roof.”
