These extremely light projectiles can be launched fantastically fast, and their terminal-performance profile is a bit different from conventional expanding bullets. The latest ammunition company to get on this fast-moving train is NOVX.

Hunting may be a popular activity in Michigan, but when it comes to states that are most dependent on the gun industry, it isn't one of them.

Prompted by increased conversation regarding gun control and reform, the personal finance website Wallethub recently conducted a study analyzing the economic impact of guns on each of the 50 states.

Michigan finished 40th overall, meaning its in the bottom 10 when it comes to reliance on firearms.

In general, the firearm industry is big business. According to the National Shooting Sports Foundation, guns contributed more than $51 billion to the U.S. economy and generated over $6.5 billion in federal and state taxes in 2017.

After the Parkland, Florida shootings, some are calling for more government research into �gun violence.� Currently, the federal government�s Centers For Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is restricted by Congress from using tax money to promote gun control (although not from conducting research into gun-related violence). Some legislators want to remove this funding restriction. Separate from the federal government, the state of California has created a �gun violence research center� and the state of New Jersey is considering establishing a similar program.

It is every parents nightmare. We are filled with horror at the thought of someone injuring our children. The strength of that reaction is why brave and honorable men put their bodies in the way of bullets during the Parkland, Florida murders.

Unfortunately, our strong feelings allow us be manipulated by the news media. The truth is bad enough, but we were lied to and told that mass murder is an epidemic.

Let�s separate the truth from the lies.
