It is impossible to say, since many gun sales are not recorded anywhere. We do know from the press (including business publications like the Wall Street Journal) that gun sales and ammunition sales have soared since Mr. Obama was elected, a trend that continued after he was re-elected. In fact, the Journal reported in mid-April 2013, that some gun manufacturers could not keep up with demand.
President Obama's political opponents, and lobbying groups like the National Rifle Association, have done a very effective job persuading gun owners that the president wanted to take their guns away, even though he never said any such thing. But this assertion was widely believed, and is still disseminated on conservative and pro-gun websites. Thus, beginning in 2008, gun and ammunition sales skyrocketed. Some studies, have shown that gun ownership has not expanded, however; rather, people who were already gun owners, believing they were about to get their guns taken away, bought more guns and more ammunition just in case. I enclose a link to the previously mentioned Wall Street Journal article.
