Not sure which subforum to put this in, or if this info has already been posted. Some gun stores in WA have defied orders to close. Probably happening in other states as well. We'll see if some sort of action by the government takes place. Maybe not, though. Hopefully the government here has other things to deal with. Here's the story:

Here's a statement on the website of one of the stores, which reinforces our second amendment rights:

We might be entering the period --- if this thing goes on long enough --- that our spare guns and ammo would be a valuable source of income, whether to sell them for top dollar, or to use them as barter items.  I have a barely-used S&W 9mm M&P, fine gun, just wasn't the gun for me, different people like different things.  I had it professionally cleaned and in the box good as new, was saving for it for the possibility the November elections could go south, and guns could go up in value due to fear of restrictions by the new Administration.  (As it stands now, you can't give an M&P away, but that could change.)  Might not have to wait that long.  I can always use the cash.

I just picked up a 90's-vintage S&W 5906.  Now, I will definitely not be giving that away.

These are the ones that flooded the market about five years ago, when everyone and their brother (myself included) just had to have an easily concealable single-stack 9mm.  I got it, I tried to like it, but it's just too tight, too tense, doesn't handle the way I like a gun to handle, as I said, different people like different things.  Some people swear by the M&P.  I then got a Ruger LC9 that handles like velvet, it fits just right in my hand (I have small hands), and it instantly became my go-to CCW (I rarely carry) and I keep it in my bedside gun safe with two magazines each filled with 7 hollow points.  The poor guy who ever breaks into my home will have signed his own death warrant.  (Deo gratias, I live in a "castle doctrine" state.)
