Ultimately, the national attention the company gained following the tragic <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/2017_Las_Vegas_shooting,\">Las Vegas shooting of 2017,<\/a> led Jeremiah to shut the company and it&#8217;s production down in 2018.

One of the most pivotal parts of his journey and what ended up being responsible for the exponential growth of his company was the tragedy of the Las Vegas shooting. I asked Jeremiah to explain to me how it impacted him personally and professionally and this was his response:<\/p>\n<h3>Impact of Vegas Shooting<\/h3>\n<p>Jeremiah &#8211; &#8220;That was an extremely difficult time. Nobody can prepare anybody for something like that. Both on a personal level or a company level. We had done well over the previous seven years, but we literally went from being relatively unknown to having the president talking about us in the news. When the president starts tweeting about something that you invented, about your company&#8230;people notice! You go from being unknown to known real quick.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_6535\" style=\"width: 2570px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6535\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6535\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/DSC1037-Edit_web-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Slide Fire SSAR-15 SBS.\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/DSC1037-Edit_web-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/DSC1037-Edit_web-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/DSC1037-Edit_web-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/DSC1037-Edit_web-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/DSC1037-Edit_web-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/DSC1037-Edit_web-2048x1152.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/DSC1037-Edit_web-610x343.jpg 610w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/DSC1037-Edit_web-1080x608.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.ammoman.com\/blog\/media\/DSC1037-Edit_web-627x353.jpg 627w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-6535\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Slide Fire SSAR-15 SBS.<\/p><\/div>\n<h3>Gaining National Attention<\/h3>\n<p>Jeremiah &#8211; &#8220;The world turned it&#8217;s attention on me.
