Quoted from Texasguntrust facebook page(Sean Cody)
"I stopped by Primary Arms today. They told me that the NICSs systen was expecting 190,000 background checks on Friday. The actual number was 185,345 background checks!
Think about that. How many seconds in a day? How many seconds in a business day? 11 hours in a business day. This averages 5 transactions a second!
Ponder that, 5 Firearms transfers were approved by the NICS system every second. That is 185,345 transactions."

Re: Black Friday NCIS checks
I wonder how many of those checks got a delayed or denied status? 100% approval on the NICS check seems a bit optimistic on all of those.

It's NICS - NCIS is the tv show or the actual division in the Navy that investigates, neither have anything to do with firearm background checks.

Between that and autocorrect that is difficult to see, who knows what you're posting at times!

Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

All these NICS checks but, according to Obama, nationwide firearms ownership is declining?
