Market Overview of Poland’s Growing Shooting, Hunting, and Target Sports Industry: A Comparison to Germany

2024-09-11 source own

Overview of the market size in Poland for the shooting, hunting, and target sports industry, with a comparison to Germany:

  1. Gun Ownership: In Poland, gun ownership is more regulated compared to Germany. There are approximately 500,000 registered firearms owned by around 200,000 licensed individuals. This is lower than in Germany, where there are over 5 million registered firearms among the population, indicating a smaller but dedicated market in Poland for shooting and hunting activities.

  2. Shooting Instructors: Poland has over 5,000 certified shooting instructors, providing a solid foundation for firearm training, hunting, and sports shooting. In comparison, Germany boasts a larger number of instructors due to its broader shooting sports culture, driven by both recreational and competitive activities.

  3. Shooting Clubs & Ranges: Poland hosts about 700 shooting clubs and ranges, serving as key venues for shooting sports. Germany, with its rich tradition in shooting clubs (Schützenvereine), has over 14,000 shooting ranges, offering significantly more opportunities for participants across various disciplines such as target shooting and hunting.

  4. Gun & Hunting Shops: Poland has around 500 to 700 gun and hunting shops, providing for hunters and sports shooters. Germany, as a larger market, has a far greater number of these outlets, reflecting a more established and mature market for firearms and hunting gear.

While Poland has a smaller shooting and hunting market compared to Germany, it is steadily growing, and the infrastructure supports an active community of enthusiasts. The demand for shooting, hunting, and target sports in Poland continues to rise, especially as interest in competitive and recreational shooting increases.
