    That's my excuse "I lost all mine in a boating accident, but motorcarman, nobody knows how many guns he has because he buys all his under the radar".

    Jeebus man, your paranoia is breathtaking. What happened to Sanders was garbage, but are you listening to yourself? Those two things are not even in the same galaxy. Regarding guns sales, I purchased two pistols and two rifles (one SBR) so far this year because I like to shoot and intend to defend my family in the event criminals attack us or our home. I’m not worried about liberals (they hate guns, remember, how do you think they will “start killing”) nor zombies for that matter. I consider zombies more likely than a civil war with libs- as someone said above, way too much apathy.

    You clearly are not old enough to be on a college campus in the 60's like I was and you have conveniently forgot about the guy out to just "klll Republicans" at a softball game, think Steve Scalise, had the guy been a good shot he would have taken out more than a few.

    You might want to read about the "Weather Underground" that bombed the Pentagon among other violence. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weather_Underground

    YES the left will KILL.

    Liberal hate the RIGHT far more than they hate guns...I know plenty of liberal that own guns.

    Remember that BGCs are performed all the time on used firearms... that doesn't add to the total number, so the original article's thinking is 100% flawed on that regard.

    I have theory... lots of guns were hocked/sold to put food on the table during the lean times of Obama's economy... Now that the economy is better, more people are employed, they're butting a gun back in their closet/safe once again. There were people that bought them during the lean times because they were still doing well enough... but unemployment was really high for while.

    So, you're saying it should start in places like Leon Valley and Olmos Park? :)

    Why? My take is,

    1) the public has gotten used to buying more often due to the previous administration and the threat of Hillary.

    2) production ramped up during the mentioned demand and when Trump one, prices fell through the floor. Now folks used to buying firearms suddenly are seeing prices they haven't seen before/in a long time.

    3) the media is still nice enough to push gun control and say everyone in the US wants it. Add that little bit of what if to the low pricing and this is what you get.

    Wonder how states that require NICS checks for private transfers impact the data gathering.

    Probably not a significant amount, but could become an order of magnitude change over time.

    But, that’s all chicken scratch. Once you get outside of “first-world” producers, manufacturing numbers are suspect at best.

    Pakistan comes to mind...tons of firearms manufactured that are completely unaccounted for.

    Feel good study, at best.
