More women are buying firearms than ever before, according to industry experts, thanks to an increased interest in self defense, marketing and surprisingly, target shooting.
"Clearly in the last two years there's been a surge in women purchasing firearms," said Jeff McClure, CEO of Freedom Capital Investment Management, a group that McClure said invests in companies that enhance the security and freedom of the United States, including the firearm industry.
"The industry is now marketing to women more," he added. "Both are intertwined. The more people of a certain demographic to purchase a product, the more marketing there is and vice versa." |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
