Another 1,000,000+ Guns Added to American Homes in August
Background Checks On Firearm Sales Up 12% In August.
Americans buy 1,074,757+ guns in August 2009


Data released by the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) reported 1,074,757 checks in August 2009, a 12.3 percent increase from the 956,872 reported in August 2008.

So far that is roughly 9,076,205 gun bought this year! The total is probably more as NICS background checks may cover the purchase of more than one gun at a time.

This latest jump in background checks show that Americans are solidly in-favor of keeping firearms in the hands of law abiding citizens and clearly shows that proponents claiming the USA wants more gun control are blatantly wrong.

Gun Owners Say No to Gun Conrtol with their Wallets
The increased trend of Americans buying firearms at a record pace was once thought to be a one time fluke caused by fears of the new Obama administration expressed lust for more gun control. But now 10 months in and the wrongly named “fear buying” has now become the norm as law abiding US citizen exercise their constitutional right to keep and bear firearms by the millions every month with no sign of slowing down.

The bulk of the buying has been concentrated on the following types of guns or calibers:

* Semi Auto Handguns
* Revolvers
* Ar15s and all variants of the Black Rifle
* .50 Caliber

1.17 Guns for Each Person
Conservative estimates of legally owned guns in the USA put the number at 355,029,250 million guns in the USA. That is 1.17 guns for everyone in the USA and if you listen to the liberal press they are all assault weapons. God bless anyone who tries to invade the USA…

LOL

Be afraid libtards, all those guns in the hands of those bitter rightwinger's.
 
1.17 guns per person. That is person, every man woman and child. And many households have no guns at all.
Yeah we really need all those guns to satisfy those with paranoid small penis syndrome.

Yes, they should be very, very afraid. It's a shame they are such weaklings.
 
And the paranoia has caused gun prices to skyrocket.

In 6 months I'll be able to buy plenty of used guns (like new) for cheap. Just like I bought a couple of generators in Jan. & Feb of 2000.

But its good to see more guns out there and more gun owners. Now if they will just be responsible with them.
 
There are a couple of specific guns I am in the market to buy. But I refuse to buy any firearm as a knee-jerk reaction.

Of course it helps that I already have several.
 
I thought one of your scare taticts was that Obama was going to conficate all guns?

Obama has had some anti-gun stances in the past. But he isn't the anti-gun crusader some made him out to be.

This time I think the fear mongering was by those who want to sell firearms.

Didn't Obama sign into law a bill that allowed CCW permit holders to carry in more places?
 
I haven't bought a gun in 2 years or so. I am always on the lookout for good deals on ammo or ammo components......the price of which has gone up dramatically lately. I'm on the lookout for 30-30 ammo right now since I bought an old lever action like I used when I was a kid.

Probably so. Us right-wingers already have our guns. Some of us just stocked up a little more on ammo and ammo components. :)

I have just bought 3 guns in the last 20 years.
I do have over 10 guns though. Several are Family heirloom types.
You will cry when you go to buy 30-30 ammo. The paranoia has driven prices to the sky.

The sales of ammunition should also give the gov't pause. A local sporting goods store cannot keep ammo in stock. They get a shipment in and it sells in a few hours.

Lot of it stockpiled.
