The National Shooting Sports Foundation, the industry’s trade association and owner of the SHOT Show, recently reached a historic milestone: 7,000 members.
That number is more than double what membership was at just five years ago.
“Our membership has never been stronger or more engaged,” NSSF President Steve Sanetti said during his SHOT Show State of the Industry address. “We have had great success in recent years solidfying our industry’s base of support. We’ve experienced huge gains in the number of retailers and ranges that have stepped forward to join us in our mission.”
NSSF membership comprises firearms and ammunition manufacturers, wholesalers, importers, retailers, shooting ranges, gun clubs, conservation groups, outdoor media, safety instructors and many others.
Voting Membership, the highest level of NSSF membership, has also grown significantly. Fifteen companies added their support as Voting members in 2011 alone.
