It was also the first event of its kind since the coronavirus pandemic began back in March, according to the Virginia Citizens Defense League.
Some have speculated that anxiety surrounding the coronavirus pandemic, months of civil unrest and a slew of new gun control laws in Virginia are contributing to above average sales for the gun industry.
According to data collected by Virginia State Police, 64,350 background checks were requested by federally licensed gun dealers in July 2020. That’s more than double the amount requested in July 2019.
The increase follows a record-setting month for estimated sales. June 2020 saw the highest total since VSP started recording this data in 1990 with 81,204 transactions.

Many deals were going on at the nearby parking lot. Face to face and cash! Screw them knowing who is buying what! If they never had records before why start them knowing what you have.
Well hello!!!
This is America - an equal opportunity business proposition EVERYWHERE!!!
Why would one purchase spirits in MD when one only has to travel a short distance to Delaware to save lots of $$$$$$
Go into a gun show facility - but great deals DO take place in parking lots!
I was in downtown philadelphia last week. Drove by a gun store with a line around the block. ALL BLACK!!
What good are the guns when 99% of you won't pull the trigger? You talk a big game but you aren't going to do a single damn thing against the government. You might use them against a non government entity but that's it.
You might as well turn them over. A waste of money.
A record demand that will become record votes.
