2022 'New Normal' in Gun Sales: 16.4 Million

[shanneba]

Down a little from 2020 and 2021 but still higher than 2019.

This week the agency said it processed 31.5 million applications for 2022 in the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS), which includes an estimated 16.4 million gun sales.
That NICS number was the third-highest on record, after 2020 and 2021, according to the FBI.

I bought more than I had originally planned on but fewer than I actually wanted, either I’m a impulsive shopper or an under achiever, maybe both.

not as many guns in 2022 for me, over all the reloading equipment, components, accessories, etc.

Zero my friend. You bought zero. In fact you sold all the ones you did have at a swap meet in Texarkana Arkansas.
