Americans bought enough guns on Black Friday to arm the entire Marine Corps

Americans bought enough guns on Black Friday to arm the entire Marine Corps December 1, 2016

I love this from the Tribunist:

According to the FBI spokesman Stephen Fischer, Black Friday shattered the single-day record for gun sales – with 185,713 background checks processed in a 24 hour period.  Fischer told Business Insider that nearly 400 more transactions were processed on Black Friday than in 2015…

The number breaks down to slightly more than two background checks per second, or enough firearms to arm each of the 182,000 active duty members of the United States Marine Corps. Semper Fi!

As Instapundit said, “JUST THINK HOW MANY MORE WOULD HAVE SOLD IF HILLARY HAD BEEN ELECTED!”
