Amazon Deletes Hundreds of Items After Senators Criticize ‘Assault Weapon’ Accessory Sales
By Abe Voelker
Starting in early August, Amazon began purging hundreds of listings for firearm accessories from its website that include the terms “AR-15” or “AK-47.” At the moment, many of these products still show up in Google’s search cache, however following the results render Amazon’s 404 page which displays a picture of a random employee’s dog.
I first noticed this last month when some products I was planning to buy disappeared, as well as products that I had already bought from Amazon that were in my order history. When I started noticing a pattern, I wrote a quick crawler to perform some Google queries and walk the results to see what exactly had been recently removed.
I came up with a list of a couple of hundred products, although there could be many more that I’m missing.
