Women Continue to Drive America's Gunsurgency
In a meandering post, Rich Duprey (aka: the Fool) claims to have found “strong evidence indicating women are taking an interest in firearm ownership”.
WOW, you don’t say.
Females have consistently comprised the fastest growing segment of the shooting sports industry for year. The facts speak for themselves:
From CNN Money’s Aaron Smith report on how Women are Reshaping the Gun Industry, to Cosmopolitan magazine’s bold declaration that Concealed Carry Purses are the New Hermès Birkins, gun-toting women are finally seeing the spotlight, and it’s no wonder people are taking notice. According to the NSSF, women purchasing a gun in the last 12 months spent on average $870 on firearms and more than $400 on accessories.

Females have consistently comprised the fastest growing segment of the shooting sports industry for year. The facts speak for themselves:
- Between 2001 and 2013, women involved in target shooting grew from 3.3 million to 5.3 million.
- During the same period, the number of female hunters grew from 1.3 million to 3.3 million.
- 56% of women reported they owned at least one gun, which was also likely to be a semiautomatic handgun (a shotgun was second).
- Gun retailers estimate 20% of their sales are to women.
- 73% of all women gun owners have taken a firearms safety course.
