  For each weapons category, we show the fund's exposure. When calculating a portfolio's percent exposure to a list of companies, we only consider long investments, ignoring any shorts or liabilities.
Civilian firearm manufacturers and retailers

We also track investments in civilian firearm manufacturers and retailers raking in billions in handgun, assault rifle, and ammunition sales. Gun Free Funds is made for people looking to align their investments with their values by moving money out of companies that make and sell guns.
