Record gun sales bang on Black Friday
The Federal Bureau of Investigation says it does not have enough staff to calculate the tens of thousands of background checks required by law when buying a firearm, as gun sales are expected to hit a record amount from Black Friday.
The busiest shopping day of the year is expected to yield more 144,000 checks and is on track to surpass last year's record 144,758. It is averaging about three checks per second.
