Gun Sales Explode Near Ferguson, MO In Advance Of Grand Jury Decision

FERGUSON, Mo. (AP) — Some suburban St. Louis gun dealers have been doing brisk business, particularly among first-time buyers, as fearful residents await a grand jury's decision on whether to indict the police officer who fatally shot Michael Brown.

Metro Shooting Supplies, in an area near the city's main airport, reports selling two to three times more weapons than usual in recent weeks — an average of 30 to 50 guns each day — while the jury prepares to conclude its three-month review of the case that sparked looting and weeks of sometimes-violent protests in August.

"We're selling everything that's not nailed down," owner Steven King said. "Police aren't going to be able to protect every single individual. If you don't prepare yourself and get ready for the worst, you have no one to blame but yourself."

The store's waiting list for private lessons and concealed-carry training classes extends into 2015.

  1. This won't happen in liberal Democratic Maryland. You can not buy a gun in this State and walk out of the store with it. It may take a year for approval. So, by then, you are dead.

  6. I am pretty sure we can guess the outcome. Why do you think the governor put the State of Missouri in a state of emergency.
