VPC Releases 'The State Of The Gun
Industry' In Response To Nation's Largest
Gun Trade Show Being Held In Las Vegas Feb. 2-5
Thu Jan 31,11:02 AM ET

WASHINGTON, Jan. 31 /U.S. Newswire/ -- A new report from the Violence
Policy Center (VPC), "The State of the Gun Industry," released for the SHOT
(Shooting, Hunting, and Outdoor Trade) Show opening this Saturday reveals
five of the gun industry's most deadly trends and dangerous marketing
practices.
The 24th annual SHOT Show will be held Feb. 2 to 5, in Las Vegas, Nev. It
is sponsored by the gun industry trade group the National Shooting Sports
Foundation (NSSF), and is the largest annual gun trade show in America and
the major showcase for handguns, rifles, shotguns, and ammunition for the
civilian market.
"While the gun industry displays its firepower at this year's SHOT show,
all Americans will continue to suffer the consequences of an unregulated
industry which kills nearly 30,000 people every year, and puts the security
of our nation at risk," states Marty Langley, VPC policy analyst.
"The State of the Gun Industry" details recent gun industry niche
marketing efforts and trends including:
-- 50 Caliber Sniper Rifles: 50 caliber sniper rifles can accurately hit
long-range targets at 1,800 meters, yet are easier to buy than handguns.
"Voting From the Rooftops," a report by the Violence Policy Center,
documents in detail the clear and present danger 50 caliber sniper rifles
present to all Americans.
-- Unintended Consequences: While the gun industry works to exploit
Americans' fears in the aftermath of the September 11 attacks, they have
been working even harder to keep hidden from the American public a secret
they readily share amongst themselves -- handguns are a poor choice as a
tool for self-defense.
-- Pocket Rockets: In an effort to boost declining handgun sales, the gun
industry has increased the lethality of its products by producing larger
caliber, higher-capacity, and more readily concealable handguns known as
"pocket rockets." Virtually all handgun manufacturers now sell "pocket
rockets," including: Smith & Wesson; Colt's Manufacturing Company; Glock;
Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc.; and Hi-Point Firearms.
-- Marketing to Kids: The gun industry has struggled with stagnant or
declining sales for several years because of the saturation of its primary
market of white males. In response, the NSSF, the National Rifle Association
(NRA), and gun manufacturers openly acknowledge their desire to cultivate an
expanded youth market and have acted on it.
-- Unregulated Shooting Ranges: Although outdoor firing ranges put more
lead into the environment than nearly any other major industrial sector in
the United States, they remain almost entirely unregulated. In just two
years a typical outdoor firing range can have lead contamination equivalent
to a five-acre Superfund site.
"As the gun industry gathers to celebrate their deadly trade, the SHOT
Show offers a unique and disturbing opportunity to see firsthand the
marketing strategies and increasingly lethal products of the gun industry,"
the VPC's Langley adds. "The clear picture that emerges from the SHOT Show
is that what is good for the gun industry's bottom line is dangerous for
public health and safety."

They would like to give an example of one of these rifles actually
being used to kill someone, but they don't. I wonder why.

"Pocket Rocket"! Dontcha just love it when they latch onto a new buzz
word.

They really think guns are an evil corrupting influence on children.

I imagine it would be, if all you sampled was the backstop.

Creative lies are still lies.
The VPC's only reason for existence is to convince people they don't want
a gun, that guns are evil, and to help clear the way for the New World Order
and subsequent roundups of subversives, intellectuals, and free thinkers.
To be followed by extermination, as history shows is the usual result.
More than sixty million killed in such elimination programs to date!
This free thinking intellectual subversive won't be turning in any weapons
anytime soon. Not until and unless I run out of certain essential supplies.
Given that I'm a reloader, and well stocked, I don't expect to run out of
those supplies for quite some time. That .223 caliber barrel will be worn
out to a .35 caliber smoothbore before I run out!
If they want my guns, they can have my bullets first. Better not to go there,
though, because like other gun owners, my intentions are peaceful, but I
won't consider the idea of turning in any guns. I shoot holes in paper
at progressive longer ranges, and that's all I really want to shoot at,
having no reason to do otherwise. I don't want to be given a reason to
change to more intelligent targets...but then again, have you ever met a VPC
associate who qualified as intelligent? I can't say I have.
To all gun-grabbing assholes: Do not mess with the affairs of sleeping dragons,
for you are crunchy and go well with peanut butter.
Leave us alone and there won't be any problem. We don't get mad unless you
make us mad, in which case you're fucked. You're a loudmouthed whiner who
needs to keep his butt out of other people's business, and we're the well-armed,
quiet type that can only be pushed so far.
I've considered the possibility of getting an ammo and supplies dealership.
I'll call the company "New World Ordnance" and use a baby blue logo
similar to the UN logo.

If they take away my cartridge guns I have muzzle loaders.
If they take away my muzzle loaders I have a crossbow
If they take away my crossbow I have a bow
If they take away my bow I will make a spear
If the take away my spear I will use a knife
If they take away my knife I will make a club
I am not a subject and I will not be a slave
They can make me fertilizer but I will never disarm.

If they take away all my weapons, I have a lathe and a milling

metal to be had and tools to work it, those who wish to be armed will
do so even if they have to make their own.
This is utterly beyond the comprehension of the anti's. They think
guns only can be made by big factories, excepting unsafe 'zip guns'.
Hoo boy, are they ever wrong!

I think that a trebuchet might be more to your liking. They used to
be used for slinging large rocks at castle walls.

I suppose that you've heard of that madman out in...Texas, I think...who
makes catapults that do just about that? This guy's creations toss Buicks!
I think he holds the world's record for catapult delivery in the payload over
range category.
I'm waiting for the guy to make a catapult that propels its load at supersonic
velocities.

I have talked to a few idiots that not only do they believe
that, ...but they also asserted that only the government had enough
money to fund such an operation!!! ... and I couldn't convince them
otherwise.

And many others, some of whose names are not so well known, including
a large number of Pakistanis that turn out guns with nothing but the aid of
a file and what appears to be the world's oldest Bridgeport milling machine
still in service. Guns that have interchangeable parts, no less!
