And might there be multiple arms in some households? I suspect I might be skewing the result more than a bit. Not many boating accidents here in Wyoming, just lots of guns.

It's the accurate perception that they've turned off the criminal justice system in most jurisdictions, encouraging unrestrained violent criminality. As we all know, it is deliberate and intentional. The only time there is any redress is when it affects the elitist leftists.

THANKS!!! Lots of FedEx deliveries tomorrow.
If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

I would venture to say that if a ban went into effect, 90% of gun owners would comply without a whimper. Even many NRA and GOA members. IMO, history would prove you wrong. In 1989 in Calif, Roberti-Roos assault weapon ban list was passed here. Required immediate turn in, registry or verified disposal of assault weapons. The numbers of compliance were in the single digits. So the state DOJ after the deadline said ok, we were just kidding, we will issue an amnesty for late compliance, the numbers were even worse, nobody complied. I can't recall the actual numbers involved, but leading newspapers in the state claimed it was the largest act of civil disobedience in Calif history. So why didn't the state start paper trailing and enforcing? Their own records were so bad, they had no idea who had what. It turns out, DOJ had hired dozens of minority hire clerks to transcribe paper to digital...with predictable results...the data was lost or incorrect. The point is, untold numbers of red white and blue NRA members continued to compete with the dreaded M1A, many of which, gasp, had a bayonet lug and or flash hider. If I am correct, I would guess gun shows in AZ, OR and NV, did a mighty brisk business for a few years.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

I wonder what the % of people that own more than 5 guns?
and no one here should answer that btw And then there is what are called “super” gun owners. Not sure where that term came from but it’s for those that own more than 17. No one should answer that either.

[quote With 457million known guns in circulation, who exactly is the Govt. going to send to round them
How does anyone come up with a figure of “known guns” ?? This cannot be a real question.

No one should answer that either. I am going to get at least a Super Duper Super rating. Are they adding in suppressors cause the NFA says suppressors are firearms. That gonna really skew results.

Remember why, specifically, the Bill of Rights was written...remember its purpose. It was written to limit the power of government over the individual.
There is no believing a liar, even when he speaks the truth.

I probably hit more elk with a pickup than you have with a rifle. I have yet to see anyone claim Leupold has never had to fix an optic. I know I have sent a few back. 2 MK 6s, a VX-6, and 3 VX-111s.

Kind of interesting that with all the peaceful promises of this new age of society more and more people who never before thought of owning guns, do.
The more utopia is preached and promised, the more violence we encounter.
Osky What a weird irony that the idealist, no matter the flavor, generally suffer from mass blindness not realizing that utopia only comes through violence.

Lost mine in a boating accident Had to be a genius who thought that was original. My boat sank because of the extra weight of my guns. I was drunk, so I forget where. My fishing gear survived somehow I sold the trailer
Gun Shows are almost as comical as boat ramps in the Spring.
