INTELLIGENCE REPORTS

Helping Our Members Make Informed Decisions

roviding a comprehensive overview of firearms production trends spanning a period of 25 years, this report is based primarily on the data sourced from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives" (ATF"s) Annual Firearms Manufacturing and Export Reports (AFMER). Every eflort has been made to provide accurate and updated information so the reader may keep this edition as a reliable resource for trend information. Production data is a leading indicator of industry performance; this is especially true when combined with other valuable sources of information. This edition includes manufacturing trends for ammunition as sourced from Census Bureau"s Economic Census, which is conducted once every five years. The Annual Survey of Manufacturers (ASM) is used for all years that fall between those fi fth-year economic census reports. Import and export statistics for firearms compiled from the U.S. Inter national Trade Commission (USITC) are presented in conjunction with the AFMER numbers to provide a more ac curate picture of the historical production that has been made available to the U.S. market. These data s ources, when used collectively, help to provide an overview of the firearms and ammunition manufacturi ng industries. Information on production, imports, exports and other manufacturing vari ables are only a piece of a more complex puzzle of the firearms industry. Other factors outside of the manufacturing sector, such as the retail sector, the economy and frequently the political climate, must all be ta ken into consideration. The limitation of the AFMER data is that it re?ects historic trends; however, using the data in combination with other reports does provide a more complete picture of the industry. Firearms and ammun ition production provide a very significant contribution to the national economy in terms of jobs, wag es, and benefits. In addition, capital expenditures on materials (energy, equipment, fuels) help boost local economies. IN THE UNITED STATES

The average annual production of firearms

in the U.S. was 5,278,368 for the last quarter century.

Total firearm production reported in the

2017 AFMER was 7,901,218 - a decrease

of 25.5% over 2016 reported figures.

Long guns totaled 3,489,295 and

accounted for 44.2% of total U.S. firearms production. Of that, ri?es totaled 2,821,945 (80.9% of long gun production) and shotguns totaled 667,350 (19.1%). * See back for all Key FindingsKEY FINDINGS
