The growing personal safety concerns and increasing shooting ranges are propelling the growth of the ammunition market. The increasing terrorist activities, mass shootings, increasing gangster activities, and increasing awareness for self-defense are the main reasons for the growing personal safety concerns while the rising awareness about the safe use of guns is the main reason for increasing shooting ranges. These growing personal safety concerns and increasing shooting ranges have led to the increased procurement of small caliber ammo for personnel safety. For instance, according to a survey commissioned in June 2021 by a nonpartisan American think tank the Pew Research Center, 44% of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents personally own a gun, compared with 20% of Democrats and Democratic leaners. 39% of the men own a gun, compared with 22% of women. In addition, 41% of adults in rural areas own a firearm, compared to about 29% of those in the suburbs and 2 in 10 in cities. The leading reason for owning a gun and firearm was personal safety or protection. Therefore, increasing prevalence of increasing personal safety concerns and increasing shooting ranges is expected to boost demand for ammunition during the forecast period.

The alliance will focus on the research and development of next-generation weapons and ammunition solutions.
