80,000 calls a day which works out to almost 2 million approved a month. The only problem is a lot of the manufacturers are in the north east where they have been shut down due to the virus. If all the manufacturers were open and cranking guns out the tally would be much higher. Some of the manufacturers have one assembly line open just enough to put a few guns out the door, but that is nothing like a normal day.
I only count for 3 of those...but I sold 3 too so

some of those were multiple gun sales. We had a doctor in earlier today who wanted a gun for himself, plus one for his wife and 3 daughters. That was 5 guns. We had to put a couple of them on a separate form as the 4473 only holds 4 guns. But he had 5 guns with one phone call.
We are having a hard time getting any guns in so when someone wants to buy half of our showcase of handguns, I hate to sell them. I also hate not to as that is why they are here. But we are having multiple sales almost every day and usually they go on one form.
