Online sales for new guns do appear to be a record. The Cabelas catalogs I had been continuously receiving faster than trains run on NYC subway lines are showing a ton of new rifles and shooting accessories. Not to mention cool camping gear like those portable Li-ion battery packs that can keep a 17" screen laptop running for 8+ hours.
I think, and I have posted on GorillaGunworks' thread a few mins ago, that there is just a shortage of older professionals to the sport, who actually attend physical gun shows. The new trend seems to be beginners who are learning the whole thing by watching Youtube videos. When these beginners become professionals, after a few hunting trips or big competition shoots, I think a lot more will be gathering at gun shows to exchange gear and advice.
