If we had a map of the "where" all of these new owners are located (and no, I am no advocate for such mapping), I'll wager most are in the suburban edges of the large megacities.It will point out that the lack of being open to inclusiveness that I mentioned before is a problem.
Which will be an issue in that many of those are going to be separated from good range access and training, as most of that will be on the more rural side of the suburbs. With all the attendant issues of transportation and the like. And, such trips are away from the comfortable, known, local.
And "we" are largely out of those megaopolises, or are committed to driving the distance required for an LGS or Range or training.
But, we could bridge that gap. like as not; the problem being in the meeting halfway. I've little interest in the big city and try to stay out of them at every turn whenever possible. It's a conundrum.
