NICS request hit record number

Post by mmckee1952 »

The figures from the NICS gun buying background check system can out with the figures for October. There were over 2.3 million gun purchase request during that month.
.
Just wait if Hillary gets to be president (which I doubt) the NICs web site will explode with people requesting NICS checks to purchase guns.
.
Buy now before Nov 8th and bypass the massive rush if it happens.
.
That’s what I’m going to do tomorrow, going to get a Colt full size 1911.

The Dem's have been the best gun salesmen around for the last 8 yrs. Record numbers of sales. The gun manufacturers should be endorsing them. Dem's are good for the gun sales business.

Yep, now if we could just get a decent amount of 22lr back on every shelf in every store that sells ammo. Funny how we can find all the guns we want, but still specific calibers of ammo are still rather scarce.

P.S. I really don't understand as a 4-H coach, we seem to be able to get plenty for our shooting teams, direct, but try your local Wally World, or other gun shop, for personal and good luck.

I was in a local sporting goods store earlier today just picking up a few extra mags. looking down the sales counter and you would have thought they were giving everything away. I have to say it looked like the starting gate at The Kentucky Derby ! Every customer had a salesperson across from them passing guns back and forth and I also witnessed several customers buying multiple firearms ! Ammo sales were rolling right along too....Lots of .223 and 7.62 going out the door .

Two more calibers many of us can always use more of.

We should have time to adjust our inventory between Nov 8 and Friday, Jan. 20, 2017.

I wonder if Hillary will choke on this:
