Look to be getting back to normal.

Top 5 Gun Control Failures of 2013

Thanks, Obama, for the record year in gun sales. However, it looks like gun sales are finally leveling off.

So, a bit back, Jersey City came up with things they wanted gun makers to do in order to get the city’s police business. So, how would some police doing the same impact the gun biz? Not much.

After dramatic rises in gun sales (thanks, Obama!), they’re finally coming back down a little.

No, they’re just leveling off.

Heh

Gun sales are booming because of gun control’s very bad year. Federal attempts at gun control fail at every turn. Gun companies report record revenue. So, investment firms are dumping gun stocks. If these people manage your money, fire them: Six months after launching a national divestment campaign against manufacturers of assault weapons and high-capacity […]

And this is a lie.

65.4 Million Gun Purchases Since Obama Took Office, 91% More Than Bush’s First-Term Total. Gun salesman of the decade!

The administration has said this a few times. It’s not true.

A look at the NICS numbers, no surprises.

December was a record month for NICS checks, an indicator of gun sales. Utah and Iowa are slacking.

No, really. Not very helpful, guys. And they cranked up their PMAGs to $60. Via the duck Update: May be a distribution issue since their suppliers are running low on inventory. And CTD probably drop ships most things.

Sales volume crashes the National Instant Check System. Stops sales. A right delayed is a right denied.

In Cali, even.

Ruger sold 1.25M firearms last year.

NRA’s training programs: So far in 2012, Kayne reported that the NRA sales are running about $265,000 above what they expected at this point in the year. Excellent. But the anti-gunners insist that gun ownership is on the decline.

Ruger stops taking orders, cites existing demand. Looks like Obama has caused two gun sales booms.

This time, in Indiana.

A run on shotguns. Handguns, barring a short barreled rifle, are probably the better choice for home defense. That depends on house layout, of course. Navigating hallways with long barrels can be problematic.

Despite the VPC perpetuating the myth that gun ownership is down, NSSF reports the 12th Straight Month-Over-Month Increase for NSSF-adjusted NICS Figures.

Good.

Wal-mart bring gun sales to more stores because gun sales are up. Which is odd, because the Violence Policy Center tells me that gun ownership is on the decline.

In Hawaii: The attorney general’s office said Monday it processed 12,801 applications in 2010, up 1.5 percent from the previous record high of 12,606 reached the year before. Hawaii permit applications have nearly doubled since 2000, while the number of registered firearms has surged more than 130 percent. Hawaii has some pretty strict gun laws […]

NSSF says background checks in February are up.

DaveY looks at the issue: Why would the comment period be extended beyond the generous 2.5 weeks they originally gave us for public input? Could it be because of this? Records obtained via a Freedom of Information Act about the ATF multi rifle sale registration scheme show only 9 people supported ATF, and only one […]

David Hardy says their attempt to report on multiple long gun sales violates the Firearm Owners Protection Act. But laws are for people, not agencies.

NSSF responds. So does the NRA.
