The number was lower than the 3.3 million all-time record set in December, but the most for the month of January in any year since the checks began in late 1998.
The number also represented a monthly record for the ninth month in a row and the third month in a row with more than 2 million checks.
The FBI notes that the figures from month-to-month are not hard data on the number of guns sold since states differ in their laws. In some instances, one background check can cover the purchase of more than one gun, and some sheriff's require background checks to obtain a concealed carry permit even if a gun is not being purchased at the time.
