Full Title: Google Appears to Remove All Shopping Search Results for Guns — Even Water Guns, ‘Guns and Roses,’ ‘Burgundy’
Google has removed search results for any product that contains the word “gun” in it, including water guns, toy guns, the band “Guns and Roses,” and even “burgundy” from its shopping section. Google has removed results in its shopping tool for a wide range of terms related to firearms, unwittingly censoring completely unrelated items such as music groups and movies whose titles matched filtered terms.
Google Shopping allows users to search for products from a wide range of online shopping sites to compare prices and offerings. The Internet giant has removed search results for a wide variety of terms, which was discovered by social media users this week.
Searches for “gun,” “guns,” “pistol,” “pistols,” “AR-15,” “rifle,” and “revolver,” in the shopping section of Google’s search engine will now fail to return any results, while other searches which have nothing to do with firearms but include the keywords similarly provide no results, including “toy guns,” “water guns,” “glue gun,” “Guns and Roses,” “Gundam,” “Top Gun,” “Naked Gun,” the Man With the Golden Gun,” “Shogun,” “Sex Pistols,” and even “burgundy.”
The fact that words including “gun” as part of the title have led many to suspect Google is running a filter specifically to remove any search result including those letters, as opposed to filtering by product category or vendor.

Same here. I set DuckDuckGo as my primary search engine long ago. Who the heck wants Google? If need be, one can always reset their filter on searches, but Google is evil and still restrictive against right-leaning causes.
I just searched for “Henry lever action rifles” on my android (using Chrome) and got several hits. I’m considering buying another “assault” rifle, even though I already have a .223 and a .308. Really like the Henrys.
I noticed they don’t link images anymore in image search — it is now the site with the image.
Google is goonegle for meegle.
I am getting sick and tired of the monopolistic power of Google being utilized for the political goals of its management. Time to break up Google.
Where in Hell is the DoJ, at least to investigate whether or not Google is violating the Sherman Anti-trust Act?
I just Googled guns for sale and got a page filled with gun sites. I don’t know who is having trouble but I certainly am not.
IXquick is another good private search engine. You can't go wrong with it or the duck one.
Just searched google chrome for AR-15 and
Smith & Wesson guns....no problem. went right to the sites....
And I was so looking forward to getting tickets for Annie Get Your Gun...
A regular Google search, and guns will pop up. It is in Google Shopping that this happens. However, you can get around it by typing in Cheaper Than Dirt, Cabelas, Smith and Wesson, SAR 9, and so on. A bunch of snowflakes trying to prove a point.
That’s funny, I was just searching for one for the first time and assumed that Google had disabled that long ago.
“I guess the AR15 is evil and the AK47 isn’t.”
That’s because the AK47 is on the national flag of Mozambique,an African country,and Google certainly doesn’t want to offend Africans.
.
Are you sure? I'm getting accessories, but not an actual AR.
No problem here. I just searched “AR15 stripped upper” and got plenty of hits. Showed up in All, Shopping, and Images. Not sure why some are having problems.
Oh, so google is colluding with Russians to manipulate the rifle market?!
I tested it and it had numerous gun sale sites. Wonderful. DUCK DUCK GO!! and they wipe your history so it cant be spied on by the government!!
This is FALSE. I searched for AK-47’s for sale, and revolvers for sale and got PLENTY! Fake news?
I also found AR-15’s for sale, no problem, searching on Google.
