17%

According to recent polling, New Yorkers are buying guns for personal protection:

“More than 60% of New Yorkers are worried they’re destined to become a victim of a crime and have taken steps to better protect themselves — including purchasing a gun, according to a new poll released Wednesday. Seventeen percent of city residents questioned in the Siena College Research Institute poll admitted that they’ve bought a firearm in the last year to protect themselves, the study shows …”

Some things coming to mind:

1. A lot of people will not admit to pollsters that they own/purchased firearms especially in the City so the actual number is likely higher than 17%.
2. Registered Democrats outnumber Republicans almost 7-1 in NYC so the purchasers are probably Democrats.
3. Black women are the hottest demographic buying guns right now so a good number of that 17% are also probably black women.

Savvy 2A groups would take advantage of this.
