The highest total previously was 406,151, set in the third quarter of 2020. During the last quarter of 2019, 272,901 firearm background checks were processed.

I wish I wouldn’t have turned all of mine in at the No Questions Asked City of Baltimore gun buyback last year.

I need to replenish my stock of ammo. I understand the demand exceeds supply right now. 9mm bullets are hard to find.

WOW I paid $20-22 for 50 bullets 9mm 5 years ago.
Now the discount store wants $70 for 50 bullets.

Yes but Dementia Joe just proclaimed he’s going to destroy the NRA during his administration!!

Yes, that is the biggest fallacy in Democrat logic and the reason they will ultimately fail. You see, the believe their own propaganda, they think every conservative is uneducated hick who follows whatever shiny object is dangled in front of them. They think all they need to do to eliminate the NRA and conservatives will suddenly stop supporting gun rights, because after all we just support gun rights because the NRA tells us too (in their opinion). Same flawed logic with President Trump. Democrats believe if they can just discredit and get rid of Trump, the 70+ Million who voted for him will just fade away as well, because without Trump out there filling our heads with nonsense we'd be supporting Biden.

What they don't understand is WE created and supported the NRA to push our pro 2nd-amendment views, not the other way around. Getting rid of the NRA will change nothing, not one single conservative will become a gun grabber if the NRA ceases to exist. Same with President Trump, he succeeded because he echoed our beliefs, he did not create the conservative movement, and the movement will not end when he's gone.

As I understand it 7.62 is still available.

Nothing west of the Mississippi, near as I can tell.

I’m in W TN, bought 2, 50 rounds of .38 SP $118.00. 2 boxes of 9mm @ 20 rounds each were higher.

Check Military Surplus stores. I’m in TN, 100 rounds of .38 SP were $118.00 today. 9MM 20 rounds per box would have been nearly as high.

Best Build youself a FARADAY CAGE for electronics, because we will have rolling black out, or Senile can just shut a troublesome area down. No communications. Couple of 2 way radios, battery radio will come in handy, extra food too.

Car buffs get a pre chip transportation.

I think the left will figure it all out when they start efforts to grab them.

If these gun owners hope to effectively defend themselves and others they’d better join or form a small group of like-minded individuals to organize, train and coordinate. The 2nd Amendment recognizes and supports this point. No threat to life or liberty is afraid of a bunch uncoordinated and untrained armed individuals.

Hope they’re buying lots and lots of ammunition as well. The Biden administration will come for the guns but they’ll also confiscate all the ammo as well. They know Americans are finally pissed off sufficiently enough to........

“Be careful saying that. Under the Biden Administration a .22 long rifle and brick of ammo will be considered an arsenal. I suspect you have much more.”

About 2 years ago, I read an article about an Australian who was arrested with 2 sniper rifles and 10,000 rounds of ammunition and given a huge prison sentence. (He had Benjamin and Gamo pellet rifles and 20 tins of pellets.)

Question for Joe Biden: Joe, who you going to send to collect all the guns you’re supposedly going to ban? I want to know because I need to stock up on hard to get ammo, components and kevlar.
