David Petzal from Field and Stream posted an article about the big blue book of gun values. In the article, the following quote appears...
I figured the NRA membership was aging, but I didn't realize it was as old as it is. Things like this, plus the fact that hunters aren't being replaced as they "age out" doesn't bode well for the NRA, or the younger generation of hunters and shooters, IMO.
Here's a link to the article I pulled the quote from.

These are perilous times for buying and selling guns, because, as the author, S.P. Fjestad, points out in an excellent short article up front, the gun buying public is aging. He notes that 70 percent of the NRA membership is over 55 years old, and when the geezer horde puts its guns on the market, there is no younger generation to pick them up.
