Black Gun Ownership, Interest Rise Following 2016 Election

  Some say they're seeing a heightened interest in firearms amongst black communities.

Are more black people buying guns since the presidential election? At least one story by NBC News says yes, at least anecdotally.

But at Stoddard’s Range and Guns in west Midtown, evidence of such a trend is mixed. The owners here estimate the clientele here is about 50-50 black and white, when it comes to demographics.
