DAAT Another validation that sales are up.

DAAT makes the gun cleaning kits for all these guns that are being sold!

But the rush to buy guns and ammo that began late last year, sending consumers to gun shows and retailers like Cabela's (NYSE: CAB) and Wal-Mart (NYSE: WMT), is still going strong. The rush has eased, but sales have been up by double-digit percentages in every month since last October, except July, according to the National Shooting Sports Foundation. Firearm manufacturers like Sturm, Ruger (NYSE: RGR) and Smith & Wesson have booked solid sales and backlog, and ammo makers like ATK and Olin (NYSE: OLN) are still trying to keep up with demand.
