  1. It would also be interesting to see these numbers broken down even further, with stats on the top bolt action rifle brand, semi auto rifle, pump shotgun, semi auto shotgun, etc.

  2. “Top” and “best” are hardly synonymous among some of these examples. “Best marketed” seems to be the focus of this list.

  3. Top handgun brand: Ruger???? wonder how they derive their #’s… ’cause GLOCK CONTINUES to ship out -worldwide, mind u- about 25,000 GLOCKS … per MONTH!! …just wondering, thats all. : )
