Arming Yourself With Facts

Just before the election of 2012, firearm sales increased because many Americans feared a massive ban would occur. Sales boosted again, along with ammunition that caused a depletion in the manufacturer's ability to meet the demand of both the government and increased civilian sales, after the push for more draconian gun control in the aftermath of the Sandy Hook massacre. Much of that caused by the misinformation of the media.

According to the Washington Times:

The American firearms industry is as healthy as ever, seeing an unprecedented surge that has sent production of guns soaring to more than 10.8 million manufactured in 2013 alone — double the total of just three years earlier. … Indeed, interest in guns appears to be at an all-time high in California, which shattered its previous record for gun-purchase background checks last month, with nearly 200,000 processed, suggesting a vibrant firearms market in the country’s largest state.
