I'm sure, with the Gov't shut down, NCIS checks will take a hit.

999, 468

Dude, only 15% of the Fedcoats are furloughed, think they'll let the gun-trackers go?

Heck I'm surprised they didn't shut down NICS as a way of trying to thwart gun sales. With deer season and Christmas approaching, I think we should see some increase. I'll highball it and say 1,560,000.

If it prevents people from buying guns? Oh yeah. I was very surprised to find the FBI site up and the numbers tabulated.
But then, if its primary purpose is building a gun registry ( and it is ) and they are worried about gun sales taking place illegally without the NICS system ( i.e deals going down on a wink and a Nod and then checking NICS when its available again) then they keep it up. Or maybe they just didn't think of shutting it down yet. Or they figure that doing so will start the war and they don't want to go there.. yet.

My guess 1,325,000

Late Again Still this month... I just keep missing that new month thing..

Glock32 Wins HIGH PRAISE for his guess of 1560000

the number was 1,687,599 up 20% over last month, and up 4.5% year over year.

Speculations and Guesses for November please...

If we simply do what we did last year, we will end the year at over 22 Million NICS checks, and approximately 89 Million checks since Obama took office..
Granted, not every check resulted in a purchase- either because of a denial or because oit was a check for a Concealed Carry etc, and some checks resulted in more than one purchase. Good luck gun grabbers.

benb61 · « **Reply #228 on:** November 12, 2013, 06:32:53 PM »

I like the NICS checks vs Oblowmecare graph.

My guess for November is 1,834,562. I figure we are coming up on Christmas.

Oh oh, Don undercutting JF!

Weisshaupt · « **Reply #235 on:** December 04, 2013, 07:55:15 AM »

This one was a squeaker!

John Florida Wins HIGH PRAISE for his guess of 1,800,000 being off by a mere 13,643
Closely followed by Benb61 who was only 20,919 off in his guess.

the Nov number was 1,813,643 up 7% over last month, and down over 10% year over year. Total count for the year so far.. 19,051,745, just 540558 off of last years total.

Okay so lets have those guesses for the yearly total for 2013!

Libertas · « **Reply #236 on:** December 04, 2013, 08:06:13 AM »

Crap, too high!

Congrats JF.

Heck with it, I'll just hold over my 1,901,308.

benb61 · « **Reply #237 on:** December 04, 2013, 09:42:59 AM »

Congrats John. Grrr I was so close.

For December I'll go with 1,862,345

LIBERTAS! Wins HIGH PRAISE for his guess of 1,901,308 !
(finally)

Happy New Year!

the Dec number was 2,041,528 down a significant 26% over last years total of 2.7 Million. . Total count for the year was 21,093,273.. nearly 1.5 million more than last year.
Since Obama was elected in Nov 2008, there have been 88,636,758 NICS checks! Way to keep those guns out of people's hands leftards!

So what will 2014 bring? Guesses for January please!
