Women are converting in droves, away from the Democrats
dangerous and unconstitutional anti-gun politics,
to gun ownership and safety... safety from the violence
the Democrats created in their Big Cities...

The last couple of years has pushed many on-the-fence people from
owning zero guns to at least own one gun. Whether it’s out of a
newfound enjoyment for shooting sports or for personal protection,
people just seem to be wising up to the benefits of being a firearms
owner. Of those new gun owners, women now make up the largest group
accounting for nearly half of new gun owners over the last five years.

According to a recent study conducted by Harvard University, women now
make up 42% of new gun owners accounting for nearly half of all new
gun owners over the past 5-years. This number is up 14% from that same
span of time and 3.5 million women joined the ranks of new gun owners
between January 2019 and April 2021. An NSSF survey partially backs up
this claim by the Harvard study by stating that 1/3rd of 2021’s new
gun owners were women.

Keen observers of the firearms industry might have also noticed a
distinct shift in the way that firearms companies are producing
marketing material with many new products like the recent release of
the PDP F Series being specifically marketed towards female shooters.
Shooting organizations like “Shoot like a Girl” have also cropped up
featuring female firearms instructors whose aim is to bring more women
into shooting sports and provide them with a more comfortable
environment to train in.

In the study conducted by Harvard University, one-quarter of the women
surveyed said self-defense was the main reason they wanted to purchase
a firearm for the first time with many citing the uptick in civil
unrest and reduction of law enforcement assets during the summer of
2020. Another reason cited by many women as to why they’ve armed
themselves is that many of them are now living alone and feel more
comfortable having a firearm in the home for self-defense.

Regardless of what is spurring this increase in gun ownership amongst
women, I think this is a net positive for the firearms industry as a
whole and the women that the industry is trying to serve. Let us know
if the ladies that you know are taking on an increased interest in
firearms and what they are saying as to how or why they’re getting
into firearms.
