… I think you might be overthinking things a bit man. Gun stores have a lot of Nazi merch. A lot of people in the US are literal Nazis who buy nazi merch. Many Nazis get their nazi things from gun stores. It’s a funny joke.

Are you like… a ‘collector’ yourself or similar? You seem oddly invested in making sure everyone knows that not every single person who owns something with a swastika on it is racist, when I think that’s implicitly known

My explanation is a direct line between professional soldiers taking trophies from the Nazis they killed and gun stores having a fair stock of Nazi war trophies for sale. You're the one attempting to imply extra information.
