Record Gun Sales on Black Friday

Wow...good job to all who helped. I tried to be a part of the numbers, but Academy was out of what I wanted by the time I strolled out at 2:00PM....

Article from USA Today:

"Gun dealers flooded the FBI with background check requests for prospective buyers last Friday, smashing the single-day, all-time high by 32%, according to bureau records."

Add LOL at this line from the article:

"And the FBI does not track actual gun sales."

I heard this on the radio. What they said was that these statistics were only the number of transactions. A person purchasing multiple guns at the same time would count as only one in these numbers.

At then end of the article the guy from the Brady Center sounded like they think the gun companies bought the guns themselves, I assume for publicity. Can't fix stupid.
