When the going gets tough, the tough get guns.
Boy I can’t wait until the good governor allows us to exercise our 2nd Amendment rights again, and allows gun stores to open./s. Buy American made guns, ammo, and related products. Save the industry.
FYI, all buyers must complete a 4473, whether or not they have a CHL that permits bypassing the at-time-of-purchase NICS check.
These sales estimates are usually based on NICS checks, though.
I did my part!
5 1/2 inch Ruger Black Hawk convertible in 45 LC and 45 ACP.
5 1/2 inch Ruger Black Hawk convertible in 357 Magnum and 9mm.
7 1/2 inch Ruger Single Seven in 327 magnum.
Yes, but only if they are making good products that people want to buy. Go look at the InRange reviews on YouTube of the “NEW AMERICAN MADE” Leupold Freedom RDS red dot sight which has turned out to be a gigantic POS. So good that Leupold has pulled the sight from sale. Comes complete with either a giant obvious scratch on the front lens or a tactical rear lens ejection system, when new out of the box.

I work too hard for my money to shell out for some overpriced, underbuilt POS even if it was made in America.
Molon labe, Gretchen!
***FYI, all buyers must complete a 4473***
I learned a sad truth over forty five years ago. In needing cash, I pawned a gun, and when I redeemed it with my pawn ticket, I still had to fill out a NEW 4473 for my own firearm.
And not one of them with a life jacket when the boat capsized. So sad. Sorry for your loss. :-)
Not all buyer must fill out a 4473. At a gun show or store yes. Where it’s still legal to sell to your buddy, you can go have a nics run if you like. Or not. Other places where it’s mandatory to go through nics for private sales, the bad guys still wouldn’t care. But, I know what you’re talking about.

Yes, but for these stats (’1.6M guns sold in April’) they’re only counting retail sale, and at retail you have to fill out a 4473.
Yup.
Just think if our guns were taken away and we were defenseless we would be eating our pets and shopping a the wet market for bats
:-)
Good to see folks are heeding the recommendation in my tagline.

We can do better than that!

This is what the stimulus money was for, right?
