Post-Black Friday 2022 Industry Deals

FFLs were busy across the nation on Black Friday, with the FBI processing 192,749 National Instant Criminal Background System checks (NICS) in the 24-hour period—up 2.8 percent from last year. The volume placed the day No. 3 in bureau’s top-10 busiest. The week leading up to that unofficial launch of holiday-shopping season the Bureau’s West Virginia facility (seen above) handled 711,372 NICS requests.

There is no shortage of post-Black Friday deals. Judging by the ongoing deals, gun and gear makers have no intention of losing that momentum. Here’s a few to ponder if you, like the entire staff at American Rifleman, have yet to begin shopping. The list is far from comprehensive, so look around and consider these few we’ve sorted alphabetically:

Bear Creek Arsenal is holding a 12 Days of Christmas sale.

Bear in mind, some of the promotions and rebates may expire at different times. So if you find a deal on that special gift for someone on your shopping list, its best to buy early before inventory is gone—or you wind up fighting crowds rivaling those of Black Friday.
