It depends on which period you are talking about. Until 1815, it was the British. After that, the Spanish, until 1846. Afterwards, ruthless entrepreneur gun runners who could get higher prices for cheaper, poorer quality firearms form the Native American tribes.

Why did settlers move west?

Many Americans bought into the idea of "Manifest Destiny"-- the belief that Americans were supposed to expand the country and acquire new territory. While this sounded good in theory, it often meant taking land away from the people who were already living there-- usually, the Indians (today called Native Americans). Other Americans moved west because it was there-- they liked the adventure and challenge of establishing a new town or city, and they were excited to be the first people in that place.
