We don't let 5 year olds buy handguns either, but we do market cars (and in your estimation, guns) to the 5 year old in all of us.
How have you determined that the gun market is flooded, btw? I can see saying that, for example, the AR15 market is flooded (take a look at their reporting), but once the AR craze dies out there will be a new favorite. Of course, bolt actions (and semi-autos) in the .22LR and 270Win have been steady since the 60's and are gaining market share, so there have been solid producers, marching forward with reasonable amounts of growth all of this time as well. Handguns...doing marvelously well, of course.
