Over Half of the Imported Shotguns in the U.S. Come from This Country

In his time since taking office, U.S. President Donald Trump has both threatened to implement tariffs against other nations — and followed through with this promise. On “Liberation Day,” Trump announced “reciprocal tariffs on imports from about 90 nations that are above a 10% across-the-board tax applied to all imports to the U.S.” However, he later walked back that plan, placing a 90-day freeze on reciprocal tariffs and lowering the tariffs to 10% for most nations. China stands as the exception — although discussions between China and the United States are ongoing, Trump did raise the tariffs for China to 145%. Many industries are already beginning to feel the squeeze of tariffs on their operations. But the U.S. gun industry has remained oddly silent. Reporting from The Guardian shares that, despite the fact that there are hundreds of gun manufacturers operating across the U.S., many use components, accessories, and safety tools from global companies. The trade war has the potential to push prices on gun manufacturing up and may make guns cost-prohibitive for hobbyists. (What are the off-ramps from a trade war between the U.S., China, Canada, and Mexico?)

Considering the breadth of guns that the U.S. imports from each year, and the myriad of countries it imports guns from, it’s no surprise that many people are wondering how the ongoing trade war could affect the U.S. weapons market. As it turns out, the U.S. imports a significant amount of weapons each year — according to the ATF’s National Firearms Commerce and Trafficking Assessment (NFCTA): Protecting America from Trafficked Firearms – Volume Four, the U.S. imported 70,199,615 firearms from 65 countries in 2023 alone. Here, 24/7 Wall St. explored which countries the U.S. acquires the most guns from. To do so, we used ATF firearm commerce data to determine 41 countries that exported the most guns to the U.S. between 2010 and 2023. We compared those numbers to the overall amount of guns imported by the U.S. Independent research was also performed into the firearm manufacturers operating in each country over the same period. This is the most up-to-date data available at the time of publication.

This previously published article was updated in April 2024 to discuss the potential impacts of tariffs on the firearms industry, including on firearm imports, as well as to add additional data for several countries. 

Why It Matters Now

Biden Administration Cracks Down On Gun Dealers For Violations

Millions of firearms roll off American assembly lines every year. Still, the U.S. is the largest consumer market for guns in the world, and to meet demand, the U.S. also imports millions of firearms annually. While the majority of guns sold in the U.S. were also manufactured domestically, certain foreign countries still have a meaningful foothold in the American market. Although groups like the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) have remained silent about U.S. tariffs, as have several major firearm manufacturers, firearms tariffs have the potential to affect Glock, Fabrique Nationale, Heckler & Koch, and even Springfield Armory, which imports Croatian HS Produkt pistols. How these tariffs will ultimately impact firearm imports in the U.S. has yet to be seen. But understanding where these guns are coming from gives you a better idea of where trade negotiations may need to happen in the future.
