Interesting Stats about Guns in the US

I am happy to see that there is 200 million guns in American hands. We have more guns than any army on earth !

I would say that the results are a bit skewed. I know I own more than one, but how many actually fessed up to owning them? If someone called me on the phone trying to survey me, I probably would tell them I had none. Besides , how many people actually got a call from them. I didn't. Any of you? Surveys are generally innacurate because it does not include everyone. The real truth may be seen someday, but that depends more on the tyrants in office than it does on surveys.

Gee,....they neglected to "survey" me also!
NY's point was, that we have a lot of guns in this country, which is a good thing IMHO.[8D]

I think they get most of their numbers for the survey from manufacturer's overall sales.
