The industry group Small Arms Analytics & Forecasting does calculate gun sales and found 1,797,910 sold. That included a 71% surge in guns purchased in April 2020 over April 2019. It estimated handgun sales jumped 83%, with 1,085,046 out the door.
It also estimated rifle sales at 560,353, a year-over-year increase of 52%, in a report titled, “U.S. firearms sales: April 2020 unit sales continue drastic COVID-19 related increase."
So far this year, SAAF said, there have been 7,012,322 gun sales.
The FBI reported that there have been 12,156,985 background checks in the first quarter, already more than all of 2007 — and every year before.
Industry officials said 2020 is on a pace to be the best year ever for gun sales because of the virus and presidential election.
