In Britain 400,000 have a firearm....in Germany 40% of the population have a firearm.
Europe isn’t disarmed.
According to the Geneva-based Small Arms Survey the leading source of international public information about firearms the U.S. has the best-armed civilian population in the world, with an estimated 270 million total guns. Thats an average of 89 firearms for every 100 residents
Effectively you are disarmed as you don’t have the overwhelming numbers of weapons necessary to dissuade the govt. nor the modern weapons to compete. You don’t have private militias which are a deterrent to govt tyranny. In the US we have over 300 million sophisticated semi automatic weapons in private hands and we don’t have registration. You do and the govt can come pick them up any time and they know exactly what door to kick in.
Europe is committing suicide and will likely not survive. Its sad to watch.
In the US no one really knows how many people have firearms because we don’t register them. Media guesses at 300 million but I think that is low
I’m sure there are many more that are not recorded anywhere. All those leftover weapons from WWII didn’t simply disappear.
