Then who are the 7 MILLION people who have bought guns just since last November. And not all who bought guns show up in that list. Some bought a used gun, some bought a new gun, from a legitimate dealer, without having to undergo the background check, by virtue of having a CHL/CCP. (Not all states' license procedures allow for that).
From AmmoLand.com:
Data from the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) show background checks on the sale of firearms jumped 29.2 percent in March when compared to March 2008 and were up 27.1 percent for the first quarter of 2009 over the same quarter last year.

The increase follows a 23 percent rise in February, a 28 percent rise in January, a 24 percent rise in December and a 42 percent jump in November, when a record 1,529,635 background checks were performed.
Even October 08 sales were up over the previous year, but just not as much as the months following the election.
