Google now banning firearm related items on their product search

[waho]

I just tried it and it seems to work. Typed in Ruger 10/22 and all sort of websites show up. Same with AR 15. Could it be your service provider?

This is about GOOGLE SHOPPING. If you wanted to find who's selling specific models of, say, a Ruger 10/22 at a good price.

NOT the regular Google search engine.

Start Google, click on "More" in the menu bar, in the dropdown menu click on "Shopping." Now try finding anything gun related for sale.

funny, on google shopping,

http://www.google.com/shopping

I searched for
Ammo
Your search - ammo - did not match any shopping results.

next I searched
porn
About 90,800 results (0.25 seconds)

terrorism
About 387,000 results (0.30 seconds)

plenty of firearms-related suggestions, but the results are censored. so lame.

I just did a shopping search for ar-15 lower. More than a few results turned up.

Eotech is still good to go but Trijicon is not. I wonder what is the different.

Regardless, the normal search function is still doing a fine jay oh bee.

Bing works just fine.

Got one for IMR4759, but it's a pretty limited result... just Sinclaire.

I wonder if Google would listen to an online petition?

[Kappy]

Ooooh... I wonder if they'd listen to a petition on their own site? They do have some function called "Take Action."

Just checked it out and verified that Google has done this. I just deleted my Google Account and everything related to it. Calguns should remove the Forum's Google search function if they can find a replacement.

hmm my Google shopping is still working for pretty much anything glock m&p ak47 etc..

what's the reasoning behind this again?

[Johnnyfres]

I was able to shop knives and ar-15 lowers. Turn off safe search filter in the advance search options.

Again this is for Google Shopping.
