    From the Truth about Guns blog;

    Another month — 49 consecutive, to be exact — with 1 million or more gun sold in August. Because of Despite the Biden administration’s ongoing War on Guns, Americans have show exactly zero inclination to curb their desire to purchase firearms for every lawful purpose from hunting, plinking and competition to personal and home defense. May it ever be thus.

    USA stock of firearms is HUGE according to AmmoLand blog

    Half a billion, that's Billion with a BIG B.

    In the United States, most residents are still relatively free to acquire weapons. Firearm sales have been over 1 million a month for over four years. The number of privately owned firearms in the United States has roughly doubled since 1996. The number of privately owned guns is approaching 500 million, with a population of 330 million, or over 1.5 guns per resident of the United States. The primary stated purpose for owning firearms in the United States is for the protection of self and others.

    Gun ownership hits the target of best ever...so far from the AmmoLand Blog.

    In an unprecedented surge of gun ownership across the United States, a recent NBC News poll has revealed a wonderful statistic: more than half of American voters, a staggering 52%, report that they or someone in their household owns a gun.

    This figure, the highest ever recorded in the history of the NBC News poll dating back to 1999, indicates a significant cultural shift in the American electorate’s attitude toward gun ownership.

    These findings suggest a deep-rooted change in the American psyche. With the increasing rates of gun ownership, especially among traditionally lower-owning demographics, the United States appears to be embracing its Second Amendment rights more than ever. This trend, however, continues to stir debate over the balance between gun rights and regulations, a conversation that is as American as the right to bear arms itself.

    From the article,

    “The state with the most gun sales through the first five months was Illinois at 5,285,820. The state has only 4% of the population but accounted for 27% of gun sales for the period.”

    Tell me there ain’t some shady shît going on there. 5x+ our guns sales for the month.

    From the AmmoLand blog; there are lots of guns in America. Click the link for more details.

    When NBC News released the stunning results of a new national poll showing 52 percent of American voters either own a gun or live in a household where someone else owns one, to get a full perspective about this rise in gun ownership requires a look at another poll released in September.

    Pew Research revealed the overwhelming reason Americans own guns is for personal protection. According to that poll, “About three-quarters (72%) of gun owners say that protection is a major reason they own a gun.

    Colion Noir and Dana Loesch sit down with Laura Ingraham to discuss Democratic gun ownership, the shortcomings of Democrat policies aimed at curbing gun violence, and the potential impact of the rising violence in America on Joe Biden's re-election.

    More about the numbers of guns America and concealed carry population from AmmoLand blog;

    The Crime Prevention Research Center (CPRC) has just published its latest annual study on concealed carry permits. Concealed Carry Permit Holders Across the United States: 2023 (Nov. 30, 2023), authored by Dr. John Lott, Carlisle E. Moody and Rujun Wang, examines trends regarding concealed carry permits.

    Earlier, the CPRC’s 2022 study concluded that an estimated 22.01 million individuals in America had been issued a concealed handgun permit, a 2.3% increase over 2021. This was “the slowest percent and absolute increase that we have seen since we started collecting this data in 2011,” and the study attributed it, in part, to the 24 states at that time that had a permitless carry law in effect. The “number of permits declin[ed] in the Constitutional Carry states even though it is clear that more people are legally carrying.”
