Gun maker sales are plummeting

Looks like business was brisk at the Tampa gun show.

Rather than investing in guns, these folks should invest in something that will really save their lives:
Membership in a Weight Watches' Program.

That was really stupid, noob
 
They`re not squandering their money on weapons they`ll never use as they did when Obama was president. He was confiscating them you know. With the NRA and Putin sharing custody of orange Jesus they don`t worry so much these days.





Didn't you mean to say that they won't need to use? After all, it was obummer who sold us out to putin. All evidence we have shows it was obummer who was pootins putz in the White House.

Or have you forgotten this little gem?



You`re comparing a nothing video to the Trump treason investigation? Good luck. The GOP is firmly in control and they`re free to investigate Obama and his ties to Putin.
 
Gun makers are clearly as stupid as conservatives.

For eight years conservatives propagated the ridiculous lie that President Obama was going to ‘take your guns’ – it never happened.

Gun makers increased production based on the rightwing lie that Clinton was going to ‘take your guns.’

Gun makers have only their stupidity to blame.

Why do you even bother? You're an idiot

Record 27 million guns sold across the U.S. in 2016
Why are you linking to a source that conservatives call fake news?

For the same reason liberals will sometimes link to Fox News... it fits their narrative.

Smith and Wesson as well as other manufacturers see sales fall dramatically. Where's the nra to buy up all those poor guns that don't have a forever home? "Won't you, help a gun, like me, find a home."


Meh. Just wait until the next Democrat is elected President...
Because Right-Wingers fall for it every time?


They certainly did with Obama.

Personally, after what Trump said, I'd say he's currently a bigger threat.

Why are you bothering me? Shoo
 
Gun maker sales are plummeting


Is that a fact? I don't need any gun makers, but I'll be glad to buy lots and lots of their guns!!! :laughing0301: BTW, what, has there been a downturn in sales for what, the past week? So now the Left is ready to pronounce guns as "going out of business?

YOU MIGHT WANT TO CONSIDER that gun sales have been THROUGH THE ROOF for years (the Obama Years), supply couldn't even keep up with demand, and if gun sales are down a bit, they might just be returning to pre-Obama levels now as everyone is armed to the TEETH.
 
Ironically, Obama was the greatest gun salesman in US History.


Gun sales are on a pace to break last year's record of more than 23 million, a boon to the U.S. industry and gun stores thanks to election-year worries about gun control and recent terror attacks, according to government figures and experts.

Under Obama, background checks for guns reached 141.4 million through the end of May, amounting to sales of about 52,600 a day, according to the FBI. Last year, the FBI conducted more than 23 million background checks, which are generally used to figure sales of new and used weapons.

Domestically, manufacturers have reported producing about 21,000 guns a day, or more than 46 million in Obama's first six years in office.

And should Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton continue to best Republican Donald Trump in the polls, sales could hit new highs, according to industry experts.
Gun salesman-in-chief: 52,600 a day under Obama, more seen under Hillary


So, LWNJ's, if the NRA is just a front for Gun Manufacturers as many of you have been insisting, why did they support Trump?

Another phony LWNJ talking point destroyed!!!

:rofl:

I'm all for a State & Federal subsidy, tax write off, tax incentive deduction - for law abiding citizens with no mental health (or other) red flags, that currently claim to have ownership of x 1 or fewer guns. Many will scoff, but how is this not a boon for society and the economy. That's a good stimulus package in my book..

This is where it stood at election time. The NRA has consistently supported him since.

NRA Sticking With Trump, Breaks Own Record for Campaign Spending
Trump is by far the largest beneficiary, with the NRA spending more than $21 million to help him: $9.6 million on ads and other pro-Trump materials, and another $12 million attacking Hillary Clinton

A video where obummer, your hero, tells Medvedev, the enemy, that once he's reelected he, your hero, the obummer, will have more flexibility. Sounds like a something video to me.

But federal data underscores just how much of a downturn 2017 could prove for the industry. The most recent FBI National Instant Criminal Background Check (NICS) data, which tracks the number of federal firearm-related background checks made every month, shows that there were about 16.3 million checks performed this year through August 2017. There were more than 27.5 million checks (an all-time record) in 2016; at the current pace, 2017 NICS checks will clock in under 24.5 million, or a nearly 11% yearly decline. While background checks aren’t a perfect 1:1 indicator for gun sales (you can buy more than one firearm under a check, depending on state and local laws), they are a fairly good bellwether.

To be clear, 24.5 million NICS entries (and the pursuant gun purchases) would still be a strong overall year for the industry, which has experienced growth nearly every single year since 2003. But it could also represent the first drop-off in 14 years thanks to a gun-friendly president.
