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." |

TO REMEMBER |
| As an individual, I believe, very strongly, that handguns should be banned and that there should be stringent, effective control of other firearms. However, as a judge, I know full well that the question of whether handguns can be sold is a political one, not an issue of products liability law, and that this is a matter for the legislatures, not the courts. The unconventional theories advanced in this case (and others) are totally without merit, a misuse of products liability laws. — Judge Buchmeyer, Patterson v. Gesellschaft, 1206 F.Supp. 1206, 1216 (N.D. Tex. 1985) |
