12. "Five years ago it was politically incorrect (to own guns),"
.. what seems to be changing is social acceptance," said Bret Jordan, analyst at investment firm Avondale Partners. "I think there might be a changing view of firearms."

"The general trend is it's more socially acceptable to own a gun in the United States than it was five to six years ago," he said.
