There were always lots of guys who brought their rifles and shotguns to school to make custom stocks for them in shop class. Seeing someone walking down the hall with a gun case (outside of shop class they had to be cased) was just a normal day.

Gallup: Gun Ownership Surges Among Republican Women
The number of Republican women who own guns has jumped from just under one in five to more than three out of ten.
www.breitbart.com
Gallup divided decades of survey results into “six-year groups” and found that whereas 19 percent of Republican women owned guns from 2007-2012, now 33 percent of Republican women do.
This means more Republican women own guns than do Democrat men, only 29 percent of whom own a weapon.
Gun ownership among Independent men shows a five percentage slide, down to 39 percent.
On the other hand, six out of ten Republican men own guns, making them the dominate political demographic among gun owners.
When viewed outside of political identification, 43 percent of all men and 20 percent of all women are “likely to own guns.”

Just plain stupid.

Breitbart News reported that New Jersey attorney general Matt Platkin and Minnesota attorney general Keith Ellison (D) are leading a coalition of 12 other attorneys general and the District of Columbia in litigious action against Glock.
The suit is over the criminal use of switches that convert semiautomatic Glock handguns into fully automatic firearms. Glock does not make the switches, and their use in the United States is already illegal, but the attorneys general claim Glock needs to change the way their guns are made so that the switches will not work.
Platkin announced the lawsuit on X on December 12, 2024, writing: “I just sued Glock to put the homemade machine gun industry out of business. The days of an Austrian company putting profits ahead of the safety of American residents and law enforcement officers are over.”
The National Shooting Sports Foundation commented on the lawsuit, noting, “Attorneys General Platkin and Ellison and the other colluding states ignore the fact that these devices aren’t produced by GLOCK, Inc., or any other firearm manufacturer,” the Foundation said. “In fact, they are largely illegally imported from China or illegally manufactured by criminals. GLOCK, Inc., has actively cooperated with federal, state and local law enforcement to combat this illegal activity.”

I know a guy who had one too, and it was mostly just for show. It’s pretty much worthless.
