Black Friday is one of the day more waited during the year. It is a day following Thanksgiving in the United States. In the last years, most major retailers have opened very early and offered promotional sales to kick off the holiday shopping season. Additionally, many employers give their employees the day off as part of the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. In order to take advantage of this, virtually all retailers in the country, big and small, offer various sales including limited amounts of doorbuster/doorcrasher items to entice clients.
Normally, the popular products are eletronics, clothes, shoes, and guns too. The staggering number of checks, an average of almost three per second, nearly three times the daily average. Black Friday is one of our busiest days for transaction volume for the FBI. As of 2 p.m. Friday, the agency had processed more than 94,000 transactions, on pace to surpass last year's 144,758. As the demand is high, it is necessary asking old employees to help and the actual employyees to work extra shifts. Average are 100 extra employees to meet the demand. The last year, about 1.1% of the gun's purchase were denied, and the factors can disqualify a purchase are: felony conviction, arrest warrant, documented drug problem, mental illness, undocumented immigration status, dishonorable military discharge, renunciation of U.S. citizenship, restraining order, history of domestic violence or indictment for any crime punishable by longer than one year of prison.
In summary, sales increase considerably in the black friday, and is no different in the market guns, but as it comes to building security people, it is important to be careful of who are the people who buy these guns to avoid future problems.
