Yeah what about those of us who have 1 pistol, rifle and shotgun for every member of your house.

Josey Wales had 4 pistols and a rifle. When he got to Tom Turner's place, there was a stack of rifles there. Maybe granny brought them from Kansas. Maybe I need to have one by each window and door. Smile

Did anyone else catch this statement, "while many poorer countries often associated with violence ranked much lower. Nigeria, for instance, had just one gun per 100 people". There is a fact we will not see repeated by the "CHANGE" administration or our liberal news media. Less guns means more violance and a poorer nation.

I dunno, the number not only do not worry me, they do not really impress me. Our culture and liberty are based on an armed cilivian populace. I guess to the anti-gun person the fact that I "own" 9 guns seems absurb or even suspicios or criminal. Yet when you break it down its rather anti-climatic.

Revolvers 4 - one per family member, each has been professionally trained.
Pistol - 1 - cause the son wanted it no ammo currently

Rifles - 2 both are .22 one was mine growing up has not been shot in decades. The other was my fathers growing up, has not been shot in a decade

shotgun 1 - My Grandfathers Parker Dblbarrel. Will never be shot again.

Pellet- 1/2 Just bought it havent even shot it. Son has an airsoft ( toy)

My wife - has a 20GA at her mothers.
My daughter has a 7mm08 at her Grandmothers
These guns are over 150 miles away from us.

Like I said, anti-gunners would have a fit at the number, but in reality, its not all that big a deal.

I know lots of folks way over their limit, but I don't own a single firearm!

I lost mine in the shipwreck. Only saved a couple because I had to swim to safety. Reminds me to buy some scuba gear now.

I agree that MS would be higher than 6th, if it were based on the number of firearms per gun owner.

Would be interesting to see how long a squad of invaders armed with AK's would last caught out in the open against an armed group of hunters? Wink

2.7 minutes...give or take a few tenths of a second. That is just an approximation of course.
