A recent study by 24/7 Wall St. has revealed the most popular shotguns in America, with Maverick Arms (Mossberg) topping the list.
The main cause of Americans’ panic purchase of firearms over the past few years has been self-defense. Law-abiding residents have been forced to purchase pistols, rifles, and shotguns due to the decline of cities under Democratic administration, which is characterized by violent crime and an influx of undocumented immigrants bussed from the open southern border. Another factor driving the demand for firearms is Biden’s ATF attack on the Second Amendment.
Based on an examination of information from the ATF’s Annual Firearms Manufacturing and Export Report, a recent 24/7 Wall St. study determined the most popular shotgun brands that Americans buy.
According to the data, the most well-liked shotgun brand in America is Maverick Arms (Mossberg). Legacy Sports International is ranked number two, followed by Kel Tec CNC Industries at number three, Remarms (Remington) at number four, and Beretta USA at number five.
The State Attorney General said Monday that 17 people were arrested with machine guns and AK-47s in connection with the California Gurdwara shootings.
