I think that during the Obama years, gun (and accessory) sales were so high that gun enthusiasts now have all the guns, ammo and goodies that they think they will ever need. Now people aren't buying much and that hurts all the manufacturers and suppliers in the industry. Just my opinion.
That being said, I'm going to try and do my part by going to a gun show today here locally and see if there is anything that I can't live without.
