Non-Woke Firearm/Training Industry Brands

Browse 30 Firearm/Training Industry brands rated on the BuyWokeFree woke index. 28 are rated Not Woke.

The firearm and training industry sits in an unusual corner of the culture war: most gun makers, instructors, and tactical retailers lean conservative, yet the corporate ecosystem around them, from banks to payment networks to institutional investors, has spent years applying ESG-style pressure to the trade. In June 2025, Citigroup dropped the firearm-retailer banking restrictions it had imposed in 2018, citing regulatory developments and the growing backlash against de-banking. The fight over a dedicated gun-store merchant category code has likewise split the country, with California requiring the tracking code by May 1, 2025, even as Texas, Florida, and Montana prohibited it.

That history is exactly why values-first shoppers vet this industry carefully. A company can sell rifles, body armor, and range time while still funding DEI programs, Pride sponsorships, or left-leaning political causes at the corporate level, so we score the receipts, not the marketing.
