Gun Industry Grows 158% Since 2008, Report Claims

The National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) reports that the American gun industry has experienced a staggering 158% growth from 2008 to 2015, with its total economic impact increasing from $19.1 billion to $49.3 billion. This surge also resulted in a rise of nearly 122,000 full-time jobs in the sector, indicating a robust demand for firearms amid shifting political dynamics.

As the industry flourishes, it faces political challenges, notably from figures like Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, who criticizes its immunity from lawsuits. Notably, gun manufacturing states such as Wyoming and Alabama have seen the most job growth, reflecting a significant realignment in the political landscape surrounding gun ownership. This complexity highlights a notable intersection of economics and politics in contemporary America.
