Gun sales topped 1 million in June, marking the 47th straight month of record gun sales.
The National Shooting Sports Foundation said that 1,110,696 background checks were for gun purchases of the 2,152,187 conducted in June, according to the Washington Examiner. The rest were for the right to carry in public places and other security permits.
"Americans have another million reasons to celebrate this Independence Day. More than 1.1 million times in June, Americans exercised their Second Amendment rights to lawfully purchase a firearm," NSSF spokesman Mark Oliva said. "That extends the streak to 47 continuous months that background checks for firearm purchases have exceeded a million."
"This is notable because these figures buck the demands by gun control politicians to surrender rights. Americans choose differently," he added. "They choose, by the millions, to keep and bear arms. They are keeping alive the vision of our Founding Fathers that this would be a nation that celebrates the ethos of a responsibly armed citizenry."
"Happy Independence Day," he added.

The gun grabbers are lying with their “polls” supposedly claiming everybody wants gun control. Another scam played on the people by the far left turd rollers.
Or, millions of mongrels invading from foreign countries are preparing for war. While America sleeps.
America is being invaded and overrun and the demented biatch in the White House thinks the Rio Grande is in the Ukraine.
I was planning on going out and burning up about 50 rounds.
After seeing the state of the US I decided to hold off “Just in case” things got hotter.
Wish I had the 400 rounds I burned up four years ago back.
Biden said people would need jets to win he didn’t think about they have to get off the ground first to win.
Two things:
1. It’s important to stay in good practice with your weapons. I practice with each of mine monthly. That means I expend ammo.
2. Buy more ammo. My own personal rule of thumb is 1,000 rds MINIMUM for each.
YMMV
