Last June and September, I wrote about the record setting gun sales and new gun owners in 2020. Looks like 2021 will be another banner year for gun sales.
According to the article linked above: "In January, more than 4 million background checks were processed, compared with the previous January's 2.7 million. And in February 2021, 3.4 million checks were reported; in February 2020, 2.8 million were completed. During the entire month of March 2021, the FBI completed nearly 4.7 million background checks compared with the same month the year before when the agency reported 3.7 million checks." Looks like Americans are buying an extra 1 million guns per month compared to last year! I love that many of these guns are being sold to first time gun owners. As more people exercise our 2nd Amendment rights, it will be harder for them to be taken away. If you know any new guns owners: 1. take them to the shooting range 2. connect them to resources for training and information 3. encourage them to join gun rights groups
