Gunlore : Firearms, Folkways, and Communities

Guns are a ubiquitous part of life in the United States. Arguably more pervasive than physical guns is "gunlore," which refers to the many folklore genres related to firearms. Gunlore: Firearms, Folkways, and Communities is the first book to engage with the many narratives, rituals, folk-speech, customs, art, and handicraft encompassed by gunlore.

Like most expressive cultures, gunlore emerges from specific communities. Groups with a shared interest around firearms may form for many reasons. This collection explores a range of gunlore genres and the "gunfolk" groups that give rise to them. Contributors examine topics that include the fetishization of firearms, "Moms Who Carry," online discussion boards, alternative history cosplay, survivalist communities, gunsmiths and gun craft, and more. Gun owners and gun enthusiasts are one of the largest avocational groups in America. The essays in Gunlore seek to expand our understanding of these communities by looking at the various roles firearms play, have played, and can play in our world.

Gunlore, for better or worse, is a powerful and pervasive method of self-expression. In examining the folklore around these controversial and politically charged tools, weapons, and symbols, we can begin to understand the aspects of American culture that will remain prominent for the foreseeable future.
