Not surprising, being Google. But still...
Go to Google, search for "AR-15" and it will return some news and such. Click on the "Shopping" tab, and they can't seem to find any for sale. "Your search - AR15 - did not match any shopping results."

You're right. Interesting. If you stay on the "All" tab, it does come back with some "for sale" results. But if you click on the "Shopping" tab, it says it can't find anything.
Maybe it's quick and easy for Google to do a wholesale block on their "Shopping" tab. It may be harder for them to block those results in their "All" tab. Maybe. Obviously, I don't know - just guessing here.
But it might be interesting to watch over the next few days to see if any of that changes.

I bet you pay a fee to be listed in that "shopping" group. I never use it.

Google disabled gun sales on their shopping channel several years ago. But if you’re just doing a plain old search, stuff does come up.
Google search, ALL results, “AR15 for sale”
Google search, SHOPPING results, “AR15 for sale”
Just don’t use their stupid “shopping” channel.
