NOTES:	*Refers to frames, receivers and other firearms that are not either handguns or long guns (rifles or shotguns), such as firearms having a pistol grip that expel a shotgun shell, or National Firearms Act (NFA ) firearms.   Start date:  June 29, 2009.
	**Both (handgun and long gun) changed to Multiple (multiple types of firearms selected).    Start date:  June 29, 2009.
DISCLAIMERS:	Some states may reflect lower than expected numbers for handgun checks based on varying state laws pertaining to handgun permits. Since the permit check is done in place of the NICS check in most of the affected states, the low handgun statistics are often balanced out by a higher number of handgun permit checks.
	These statistics represent the number of transactions run through the NICS.  They do not indicate firearm sales.
