10 most popular posts of 2014

A post is a simple, single concept often containing a trivial anecdote to share with others. Limited information but maximum enjoyment. Sometimes it’s news, sometimes it makes you laugh, other times you wished you never clicked on it at all — but you did! Any way you look at it, we hope you got something out of it.

For those unfamiliar with our process, we share stories that we think apply to or at least affect those interested in the topic of guns. As we go into our fifth year as a publication, we’re always surprised to learn just how far the topic brings us. And we hope you are too.

As 2014 winds down, we thank you for reading, commenting on and sharing our work. Here are the top 10 most popular posts on Guns.com in 2014.
