With big city Democrats wanting to defund the police, lax prosecutions and rampant crime, it is no wonder that more Americans are buying guns. That is also playing a big part in the current shortage of ammunition.
2021 continued the firearm buying frenzy.
According to The Blaze:
The firearm buying frenzy continued into 2021 as nearly 5.5 million Americans became first-time gun owners, reports the Washington Examiner. Notably, sales expanded among women, black, Asian, and Hispanic Americans.
The president of the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF), Joe Bartozzi, said, “The surveys revealed that new gun owners are continuing to embrace their Second Amendment rights, and nearly half of them are seeking out professional training.”
He continued, “These trends show that not only is there still a strong interest in gun ownership but also that these new gun owners are interested in learning more about the safe and responsible handling, use, and storage of firearms.”
