<[link removed]>
The FBI NICS office conducted 3,626,335 total background checks last
month. November is always a busy month with elections, Black Friday,
and holiday deals to be had. Even the year-to-date streak of record
numbers and reported inventory shortages around the country could not

Discrimination
<[link removed]>
In late November, the Trump administration took its firmest action yet

Trudeau’s Toxic Gun Ban: No Buy-in to the “Buyback”
<[link removed]>
Under the Liberal Government’s scheme, over 1,500 firearms and

these newly prohibited firearms or devices on the day the regulations
were announced are protected from criminal liability arising from
their possession or ownership, but this “amnesty” period ends on
April 30, 2022.
