San Diego, Calif. --(Ammoland.com)- Firearm dealers, what 2012 new products do you think your customers will make best sellers in 2012?

Shooting Industry magazine wants to know, and has launched an online survey to gather the opinions of firearm retailers.

“An incredible number of new products are being introduced this year. However, which ones are really going to sell?

Firearm dealers are the ones who have to close the deal on the sale of all these ‘revolutionary’ new products. Their opinions are valuable, and we’d like to hear from them,” said Russ Thurman, Shooting Industry’s publisher and editor.

The survey asks firearm dealers two questions:

• What 2012 firearm do you think will be a best seller with your customers this year?
• What other new product do you think your customers will make a best seller during 2012?

“Dealers, we’d like to hear from you, and we’ll publish results of the survey in an upcoming issue of Shooting Industry,” Thurman said.

To take part in the survey, visit www.shootingindustry.com. Facebook fans can link to the survey at www.facebook.com/shootingindustry.
