That doesn’t count face to face sales. I’d put the number much higher
But those aren't new guns, just existing ones being recycled.
The best numbers for new guns are going to come from manufacturer data.

When my 1/2 brother came out to visit he actually took pictures of my ammo shelf. He was astonished. I told him I’m a lightweight.
You can fit it all in a shelf? Geez, and we look up to you for advice...
To be fair, there are 5 shelves on the unit It is 6 feet wide, 6 feet high, and 18" deep.
Wow. That's quite a unit you have there.
My plan had been to save up some cash while waiting for the rush to die down, then try to help support my LGS in the slow times after the frenzy subsided. However...my birthday was yesterday. I don't have room for another long gun and nobody else can buy a handgun for me so I kinda had to go in myself for my birthday gun
Wow! He had ZERO AR's, and just as many defensive shotguns in stock. He said he just can't get them. The store wasn't completely empty (there was a variety of handguns, long shotguns, a few .22's and some lever actions), but it was definitely as thinly stocked as I'd ever seen it.
While I was in the shop, a couple of pickups happened and at least two separate people came in looking for something defensive. Before leaving empty handed, of course they asked, "What do I have to do to get a handgun...how long will that take?"
He's normally a very cheerful and enthusiastic person, but I could tell it was wearing on him. He did say that no one had yet been desperate enough to buy a $1300+ shotgun and $20 hacksaw...yet
My wife has never been impressed with my unit. The Irish Curse.
