Not likely.....it is an international market, we are strong buyers but hardly the only mouth at the table. It is the retailers and consumers in America that will take this 10% in the shorts. That's right, you and I, just like with everything else that is imported, coffee, bananas, you name it, it is the American consumer who pays more, in spite of the tall tale Trump is telling that the foreign seller pays the tariffs.

Firearms imports, consignments
