Interesting subject. I was at the gun range yesterday with my shooting friend. He mentioned that he was at a recent gun show and that 80% of the gun buyers were black women.
He said he talked to a couple of them where one of the dealers was trying to get them to buy $900 pistols. He pointed to a much cheaper model and said they were just as reliable and easy to clean; said he owned one himself. My friend is the scourge of rip off dealers.
