I added the underlining in the table to make the spacing more readable in this format. The percentage for March of 1993 is 48 percent, the percentage for October 1993 is 51 percent, which lines up with the buying spree prior to the "assault weapon" ban in 1994 and the Brady bill the same year.

The article shows interesting figures that the number of respondents to survey questions about guns tends to drop when "Gun Confiscation" is being discussed. Not a surprise here, but interesting figures.

If we told them, it would spoil the surprise.

My answer:

“Nunya Bidness”

[occamrzr06]

My answer is, “enough” guns, my problems, as always is do I have enough ammunition?

[Tijeras_Slim]

Now that’s funny.

[doc1019]

Gee, same thing happened to me. What a coincidence. ;-)

[Internet Walnut]

Good answer.

[AFreeBird]

And how many are lost in tragic boating accidents but never reported due to the embarrassment of the owners.

[humblegunner]

Well, there are a few folks who know where some of the tactical stashes are.

Amazingly, these are the same folks I’d hope to use said stashes in defense of the property.

But no, the total number of guns in the house?

I’m not even too clear on that one.

ROFL! I love that answer. I'm going to say it out loud a few dozen times so that I never forget what to say if I'm asked how many weapons I own.

[aomagrat]

Lost mine in a bizarre gardening accident.

[weps4ret]

Mine too! Just sigh!

How about none of your damned business?

Not to you M.T...

[Oshkalaboomboom]

Count the blades of grass and you’ll get your answer. Any WWII buff could have told you that.

[Yorlik803]

How many guns are there in the country? A whole buttload. Behind every blade there will be a gun

Out of the blue last week, I got a telephone call from the Washington Post conducting a survey on matters of politics and government policy. It was a very extensive survey. I estimate there were 50 questions and we talked on the phone for nearly 30 minutes.

I answered all of the WaPo questions truthfully, but I refused to discuss two topics. One topic was my family's income and the second topic was, you guessed it, the number and type of guns in our home.

I frequently post on a well-known gun forum on the Internet, but I don't describe all the firearms I own or the ammo I stockpile. I never post any pictures of the firearms I own. The Internet is forever, and I don't want the Government to know the weapons I own and where they are stored. It's sad that we can't trust our leaders, but that's the world we live in today, especially with creeps like Eric Holder at the DOJ and Obama in the White House.
