April 2018 saw the most gun-related checks run through the Federal Bureau of Investigation's background check system.
The National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) ran 2,233,213 checks in April, according to an FBI document. That's nearly 90,000 more checks than the previous April record set in 2016. It also represents the second month in a row to set a record with March seeing 2,767,699 checks.
The drop off in background checks between March and April matches the industry's typical sales cycle where more guns are sold in winter months than in summer months.

Ha!
I did my part. I just picked up a nice Mannlicher 1905 which has been on my list for quite a while.
Gee... ain’t they cute?
Now run along and play with your Barbie and Ken dolls, kids... The Adults are speaking.
Speaking With there Wallets!
Both my wife and I bought a new handgun in April
I’M picking up The New
PC9 RUGER 9MM CARBINE in a few days!

My wife got a Ruger EC9s and I replaced my S&W M&P .45 full size with the 2.0 version.
“...gun-related checks run through the Federal Bureau of Investigation...”
The fact that FBI controls the database of where the guns are is a tad disturbing. IF it were the honorable organization it used to be... no problem. Then again, IF my aunt had a penis, she’d be my uncle. But my aunt isn’t my uncle and the FBI no longer is honorable.
XLNT!
