Americans bought about 2.2 million guns last month, the second-largest March figure on record, according to consultancy Small Arms Analytics and Forecasting. After hitting an annual record of almost 23 million units in 2020, sales of firearms in the United States have continued to sustain momentum.
Gun sales are generally driven by recreation and safety, but there are also concerns over increasing government measures to control guns, with some people even moving to more freedom-friendly states.
