DAAT - Here is some information to show just how strong demand for guns is.

RGR is a publicly held company that sells rifles, shotguns, and handguns. Their backlog grew to 458,900 units and $136.3 million at the end of the first quarter of 2009, from 175,900 units and $47.8 million at the end of 2008. To put this backlog in perspective, it is over twice the Q1 revenue which was $63.5M. Furthermore, Q1 revenue grew 49.5%.

DAAT - I can't tell you much on MidSouth Investors. However, I can tell you that they added recently because they would have had to file as soon as they crossed the 5% threshold.
