Following the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history, federal background checks for gun purchases surged in June.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation conducted more than 2.1 million
background checks in June 2016, compared to about 1.5 million in June
2015. That’s an increase of about 40%.
This means that 2016 is on track to break last year’s record for
background checks. The FBI conducted 13,829,491 background checks in the
first half of this year. Last year’s tally for the entire year was
23,141,970.
