Basically, with the shopping tab (as with many tabs on Google) you have to be specific.

So, where's the problem? It's a simple keyword search, as opposed to general searches.
I type in "Ar-15" and get nothing and then "AR-15 upper" and still get nothing and then "AR-15 mags" and get a bunch of hits.

The only difference I notice is the location? I Wonder if the location is working too well? lol But there is a huge gun shop 5 minutes from here but maybe they are not registered with google or something.

Maybe this will help explain things...

Seems that they are going to be going away from item searches, to more of an advertisement from sellers.

So, someone searched for guns and got no results, passed on the info, where some other people got no results, and started a panic...sound about right?

Pretty much, yeah.

Typical knee-jerk reactions that those on the left pull... then the truth is shown, and ignored.
