Background checks for gun sales spiked 11% in June compared to last year, making it the busiest June ever, according to the FBI's background check data.

Last month the FBI conducted nearly 1.53 million background checks, which are required for all in-store purchases, but not for sales at gun shows or between individuals. That's the highest volume of checks in June since 1999, when the FBI started keeping track.

Gun background checks have climbed annually since 2003 with the exception of just three years, one of which was 2014, indicating a clear jump in gun sales.

Now you’ve done it.

Just when a man thinks he has plenty of firearms, and only has to worry about buying bulk ammunition on sale, you post a link to the Kimber Ultra CDP II (LG).

I have a Kimber Warrior with the Crimson Trace Lasergrips. It is easily my favorite handgun.

Now you’ve gone and created a deep-seated need for a concealed carry version of Kimber 1911 .45 ACP.

Thank you!

.45 ACP, 9mm, .380, .357, .38 Special seem to be easy to find. Stocked up on .22 LR way back when and, like a fool, took it all on a boating trip.

My pleasure. Those Kimbers are some sweet, sweet pistols. For the money they’re the finest 1911s you can buy IMO.

Best,
