The best long-term marketing plan you can implement for firearms is to keep electing Democrats.

Why do you own a gun?
Started training police dogs almost 20 years ago. On the street realized just how dangerous and random the world is. Realized the police do not protect me. Merely pick up the shattered pieces of people's lives. Every Crown Vic should have a bucket and sponge in the trunk. Average 911 response time where I live? 21 minutes. Don't know a single street cop who is pro gun control, not a one, and I know a lot. I am foremost responsible for my and my families protection, not the state. I can count on myself, I cannot count on a bunch of pampered liberals (you asked)

How many do you own?
A lot. Mostly semi-auto pistols, compacts, sub-compact, mostly full-size since the state in its infinite wisdom feels I am not capable of my own self-defense. My liberal county will not issue CCW (though my county gave Diane Feinstein one , they felt her life is worth more than mine or the lives of my family). We also of course have a surprisingly high crime rate. Shotgun and some evil black rifles.

When did you start getting interested in guns and why?
Refer to first question. Self-defense and recreation. I find shooting very relaxing yet challenging.

Are guns something that is a part of your regular life or lifestyle, or something on the side?
Outside of work and family, it is my passion.

What about guns appeals to you?
The total body and mental focus. Grip, stance, breathing, concentration. Recoil management. I find it therapeutic, relaxing. The ability to defend myself and my family, again, the police do not.

How much money a year on average do you spend on guns?
A lot.

Do you buy guns from a specific manufacturer? If so, why? If not, why not?
Glock - reliable, light will always shoot. Sig Sauer - field proven, classic beauty. CZ- bloody accurate.

Drop the name, it is dreadful. I person who would buy a "Pistolet" will buy only one gun and will never shoot it. Target that crowd, the trendy, the "with its" and you'll drown in red ink.

I personally am not too thrilled on the name, but my group members wanted something French. .

Your group wants name it something in "French". How about Surrender, just like the current administration wants us to do with our guns.

I personally am not too thrilled on the name, but my group members wanted something French. The idea we were going for was sexy, classic, timeless. Think jewelry. We want to market to both genders, but the ideas we've come up with thus far seem more slanted towards a female clientele. Either way, there will be no pink guns. We wanted something a little closer to the James Bond idea of classy and sexy.

maybe 'pistolero' instead of pistolet?
