...

Background checks in March were up 36% from February, as around 4.7 million were initiated, FBI data shows, according to CNN.

The number of checks do not equal the number of guns purchased, but they do tend to correlate with the volume of sales. Gun sales have historically trended higher as safety fears gripped America or when citizens anticipated upcoming gun control measures.

Marxist Democrats, the greatest gun salesmen on the planet, and the biggest Morons because they can't get paid for it.

Who are buying these record gun sales year after year? I can't believe these are all conservatives building arsenals. I can understand the Obambi years, but not Trump, and why the idiot Biteme even with his socialist Congress?

Hope I'm wrong, but I believe a lot of the Left are now buying for various reasons.

One has to wonder, What makes the Democrats think all these gun owners will submit and surrender their guns?
I live in Hawaii which arguably has the worst gun control laws, eg. we have to get police permission to purchase or transfer guns and we have to register ALL guns.Most people except the whites( I’m considered a white guy)ignore those laws.
It will be interesting. Do you think they Democrat have enough cops to enforce their unenforceable laws?

Yeah, we said the same old tired crap about Obama. It’s a little old after 13 years reciting the same expression with a different democrat.

Let me ask you a few questions:
1. Have you seen anybody wearing a mask the past 14 months?
2. Were you able to go to church in 2020?
3. Were you able to go to sporting events in 2020?
4. Was your barbershop or salon open in 2020?

We all know why.
So do they.
The trick will be to not let them know when the tipping point is reached.
Surprise is always a good start.

I didn’t record a single background check in March - 80 percent lowers, AR uppers and parts kits don’t require it. Thankfully neither do drill bits or routers.
