What Shooters Want

[TraderJack]

I recieved this list in an email from an industry source(pm me if you are interested in getting on the list). It's from surveys taken in 2007 and represents a broad spectrum of the American Shooting Public.
I thought you may be interested to see what your neighbor is buying.

This list has been compiled from the 19,288 surveys that hunters and target shooters returned from HunterSurvey.com and TargetshootingSurvey.com last year.
In 2007, the top brands included:

Top rifle brand: Remington (14.1% of all purchases)

Top shotgun brand: Mossberg (27.5% of all purchases)

Top muzzleloader brand: Thompson Center (29.7% of all purchases)
