Gun Sales Up This XMAS?
Glenn Reynolds notes an email about heavy sales at a gun store in the runup to XMAS. (scroll down to the 12/24 entry)
I wonder how many readers here bought or received guns as a result of the ongoing threat of terror attacks? I keep up very basic skills using the guns my husband shoots, but this year I decided I wanted a gun of my own that I could become proficient with. Santa brought me a Sig Sauer P229 9mm ... it fits my hand much better than our Beretta 92F, which I can only shoot 20 or so rounds before I start losing accuracy as my hands tire.
Fred - I hope this is appropriate for Rantburg. If not, please delete it. No news articles detailing sales for this season are available yet (that I could find), but I suspect I am not the only woman in the US who has decided to up her self-defense skills this year. Or am I???
