The gun manufacturers of America have had a tough time since Barack Obama, dubbed the “greatest gun salesman in America” on CNN Money, and “best gun salesman on the planet” on CNBC, left office. After the November 2016 election of President Trump, monthly background checks for firearms purchases tumbled by 500,000. The market was so grim that in February this year, legendary firearms manufacturer Remington filed for bankruptcy.

But suddenly the fortunes of gun manufacturers seem to have taken a turn upward, thanks mostly to David Hogg. AWR Hawkins reports on Breitbart:

My retirement job is working part-time in a gun shop.
Business is up.
Last night the NICS system crashed.

Lower overall sales did not hurt Remington. Stupid engineering and awful marketing hurt Remington.

Is his face going to replace someone’s face on the “Dirty Dozen” target that the gun ranges sell?

Correction.. Poor quality control plain and simple. What they did to Marlin rifles soon after their acquisition was criminal. Plus the Remington 700 today can not hold a candle to one made 20 years ago.

Thanks for that VERY accurate moniker for hoggwash.

We can now refer to gun salesman, David Hogg.

Next to Insane Hillary Clinton and Hate America, Barack Hussein Obama, David Hogg and his undying love and unending admiration for Democrat Party, Broward County, Sheriff, Scott Israel, the “abettor” of the Broward County High School Murder/Slaughter, the the Democrat Party, Public Servants of Broward county, that stood by and did nothing to prevent this slaughter and the FBI, doing ditto...Hogg is the greatest thing for more gun sales and the political destruction of the Democrat Party in both Florida and the rest of the country.

I'm a 75 year old female. Gutted my first dear at age 18.

I just joined the NRA.

David should read about the history of our country and why the right to bear arms was so important. Just plain ignorance.

No gun law has ever stopped a killer.

“Plus the Remington 700 today can not hold a candle to one made 20 years ago.”


Glad that I have one that is about 20 years old. I still need to get a bit of gunsmithing done on mine, but it will very reliably hit within an inch of POA at 100 yards (and I’m no great marksman).

Don’t know much about gun sales, but the few times I’ve heard the young man speak made me want to buy more ammunition.

I was leaning against a cottonwood fence in a barnyard talking to my first dear when her gal friend came up and without a word they looked at each other and just started laughing and the gal friend said “How many times?” and my gal held up five fingers. I know, kind of bragging ...

I was definitely gutted that afternoon but have survived many more hunting trips.

Setting one up right now in fact but for my wife of many years all she has to to do is wiggle her hips and I get gutted again.

So, as a public service, I will say in closing that getting your gal a Hula lessons DVD or class is highly recommended. Trust me, worth every penny. Good hunting. ;-)
