Well, there was that period after Sandy Hook when AR-15's were purchased in record numbers. I realize that was a response to the call for an assault rifle ban not the actual shooting. It is creepy however that a gun most recently know for shooting a bunch of school kids immediately became the hot, must have item for gun enthusiasts.

it didnt suddenly become so popular,  its always been the most popular rifle in the US.   so its natural that if something is the most popular you will see a huge sales spike on talk that it could be banned.

Sales rose. I went out and bought Too Human when they announced a court order to take it off the shelves. I understand. In case of the AR-15, I still think it is creepy because of the obvious mass shootings associations. I wouldn't personally want to own one. My point was only that Bushmaster did indeed profit from the shooting.

in the aftermath of the purposed ban, which failed, there have been dozens of PRO-GUN laws passed. Gun ownership is actually more of a guarantee than ever before. I really don't see why people like "Rambo" SocialSlayer seem to think his beloved hobby is under attack. It's not based in reality. If liberals want to call for action against guns they have that right. They aren't achieving anything and that upsets some people. I'm glad it does. If no one cared I would be really worried about the state of things.
