With H&K and SigSauer, Germany and Austria have a sizable gun industry, without the massive shooting problems. Because of the same language, these two companies could easily advertise and lobby in Switzerland.
Swiss pop density is 226 inh/km^2, whereas USs is 41 inh/km^2 and even denser areas like New York state are merely 159 inh/km^2.
I think it's all policy and very little other factors.
Heckler and Koch, and SigSauer have their biggest manufacturing subsidiary in the United States.
Try again.
