I've been a gun owner my entire adult life and most of my childhood too if you count the ones my Dad taught me on and gave to me.

My wife finally bought her first gun last May. She's managed to convince many in her family - who are not shy in their fear of guns - to come with us to the range and now they enjoy it. I have several friends that I've introduced into firearms and many of them purchased their own.

Maybe it's just the fact that we are in Texas but my own personal experience has convinced me that the number of owners was rising.
