FERNANDINA BEACH, FL. – Southwick Associates has released the 2023 Hunting & Shooting Market Size Report, detailing the size of the more than $22 billion hunting and shooting equipment market in 2023. The overall market value dropped from 2022 estimates, but was still higher than pre-pandemic levels, with firearms and ammunition declining less than anticipated.

“Consumer purchases of firearms and ammunition was stronger than expected in 2023, as dealers continued to work through inventory and re-align product assortments,” said Nancy Bacon, Vice President of Southwick Associates. “Inflationary pressures continue to affect the consumer, but they appeared to be resilient in 2023 with increases in hunting and shooting accessories that may not have been broadly available in the last couple years. The new market size report will help businesses understand the new market environment, and identify opportunities.”
