Not counting grenades(which I quit making because resource sellers have upped the prices on components to 10 to 20CPU)I sell between 10 and 15. I have been buying a lot of high end geo loot and have contracted a master smuggler so I will be adding geo and sliced weapons shortly.

100-500 per day. Weekends can get insane.
Income is private.
I sell out T21s and Hammersfaster than I can make them, not to speak of loot-weapons (Krayt, Acklay, Scythes, DXR6s etc etc) that people go nuts over.
It's a full-time job running amax stocked vendor with a huge amount of traffic, but it's rather fun. I make ALL weapons (except grenades and RLs). If you are looking for a max stat D18, P5 or SR pistol - I provide it, though I'm not selling a lot of those. Not just the big sellers (T21s etc) - I make them all for my customers.
People love the service I provide with my shop.

I used to sell out of my old city about 1-2 weapons a day, I moved my shop to dant. and now sell about 3-6 weapons a day. I'm also getting started in the extreme weapon market. Nice money, something different, and better variety of weapons in vendor. Unlike =TROLL=,I'd go nuts if I had toproduce hundreds of weapons each day. My alt is a BH and I spend a lot of time out playing, not having to worry about my vendor each day.
Most of my weapons (Non-extreme) are in the $8,000 to $12,000 range, so if we say $10,000 average with4 weapon sales a day (Average), that's $40,000 per day, $280,000 per week, and about a million a month. One note, I've only been in this spot for about a month so it will get better as days go on, as long as I maintain my vendors nicely stocked. I became a weaponsmith to supply my alt with weapons, but the suplimental money is nice too. 
Hope this helps.

G'day Shug,
Well Im on flurry like your good self. Ive been around a while and have a decent customer base. I keep 3 vendors stocked and carry most weapons and specials alot of the time.
Last month I had 740 different (disting customers) and sold about 1,800 weapons. The daily figure varies alot based on day of the week, with the weekend (and friday) being peak and tuesday/wednesday being trough.
The outgoings is important to note. With my weapons turn-over I dont have time to do much mining so I buy most 'spawns' of note in. I make about a 30% profit on my sliced guns and about 15% on my unsliced. (this doesnt include specials and custome orders where I make more profit but spend more time).
It took me 3 months to break even as a weaponsmith. Indeed at one point, with the 2 new houses, 100+ resources I bought, 10pts of tapes (in bits) I was almost 30 million down !!
These days though, I wont go hungry for a while
