Love to shoot guns and looking for someone who shares your interest? Concealed Carry Match might be the place for you. The Michigan-based platform launched last month and has already seen some 10,000 registered members sign up. Catering to the millions of American gun owners and Second Amendment supporters, concealedcarrymatch.com is not a politically driven site. 

“We are serving a community of people who are often misrepresented or stereotyped,” said Chief Operating Officer Molly Lund. “These days, say the word ‘gun,’ and you get polar opposite reactions. This is drama that we are trying to avoid.” 

Lund also spoke to the fact that gun owners like to keep their interest private. “Unlike other dating sites, initially you don’t know whether or not your potential partner is accepting of gun ownership. Concealed Carry Match allows members to instantly bypass that mystery. It makes for a relaxed start to any potential relationship.”
