The National Shooting Sports Foundation’s (NSSF) 2021 figures show a decrease of about 3 million from the staggering numbers of 2020, when an estimated 8.4 million people bought guns for the first time. The firearm industry trade group found that 27% of the new gun buyers were between ages 31 and 40, while 22.2% were age 30 or under.
The third-highest group was those between ages 41 and 50, who made up 21.7% of first-time gun owners, The NSSF found. Almost 47% of the first-time buyers asked about firearms training, while 43% enlisted in training programs, the group found. And more than 33% of the first-time gun owners were women.
The group based its estimates on its own retailer surveys combined with adjusted statistics from the FBI's National Instant Criminal Background Check System.
While I am encouraged by these statistics showing that more and more Americans are exercising their right to keep and bear arms, I am also somewhat concerned. I am concerned by the fact that fewer than half of these first-time gun owners sought any type of training. Firearm safety is the cornerstone of being a responsible gun owner and everyone who owns a gun should not only be well versed but practice firearm safety every day.
I am a huge believer in practicing safety where it comes to firearms as well as being diligent about practicing with your firearm. Firearm proficiency is a perishable skill. Especially those who carry one in public. Regular practice should be part of your firearm safety regimen.
