They're like a dog that smells meat and cannot contain themselves.If the anti’s only knew that they are their own worst enemy. Every time they march they sell a quarter million guns. Every time they push a new law they sell a quarter millon guns. Every time their fake news media cranks up they sell a half million guns. Every time they.........
If they would just shut up then gun sales would decline if not plummet.

Gosh, what a surprise. I see a lot of high-end ARs are selling quite well these days. Wonder what the stats on magazines and ammo sales look like ...

The NCIS number is not a direct translation for the number of guns sold but you can make a logical assumption that if the number of back ground checks goes up 10% the number of sales also probably went up.
The biggest thing that'll skew the numbers is states adding mandatory background checks for private sales because those are completely new figures. People buying 2 guns under one background check has always happened. People getting back ground checks and not completing the sale has always happened.
There is a great article now in Gun-test mag. And it features the sales of March gun sales.
Numbers tell us quite a bit. History of sales, up and downs etc. But you can generate your own thoughts as to why, were will it go, future up's and down etc. You be the Judge.
Number of NCIS checks is a good indication that weapons sales are going up and/or down, but far from an exact number. Not even sure if there is a way to find out what the sales figures for any one month were.
A person might have had check performed but backed out of the sale
Check might have been run on the last day of the month; however, the actual gun sale might have been a day or more later.
A person might have purchased more than one weapon.
A state licensing agency may have run a NICS check for a handgun permit. Example, if a person obtains a permit from the state of Idaho, a NICS check is run as well as the in-depth background check. This allows the person to purchase a gun in the future without the need for a background check.
A person, in some states, could have purchase one or multiple guns without having a check run on them. (I can guarantee that the numbers for December 2017 and January 2018 are off cause I purchased a handgun in each month and no NICS check was run.
Just saying....
