Looks like google is censoring weapons related searches.

Go to google, type in "AR-15", or ".45 ammo", than click on the shopping tab.

See what pops up.
 
Re: Google goes anti-gun???

I've never tried the shopping tab before when searching firearms related things, so did it work for you recently?
 
Re: Google goes anti-gun???

Remington 870, AR 15, .45 ammo, pistol ammo, federal steel shot, dont work.

Type in something a bit more obscure, like "M14", and it works.

Maybe adding search terms piecemeal till its all censored???
 
Re: Google goes anti-gun???

Huh, didn't even think to use their shopping service to find the lowest price... I do that by hand by visiting sites I know/trust and want to support with my dollars. Maybe I'm just old school but I like looking around sometimes.

Also, I don't trust the aggregation sites, who's to say they're not screwing with search results based on how much the companies pay them and not by facts like how much things are selling for?
 
Re: Google goes anti-gun???

I type "shop". folowed by my search argument(s), in the regular Google Search window. It's never messed with my search yet.

I.e."shop stag arms model 6"
