Is that a fact? Care to reference your experience?

You can find the figures online for Europe.

Sweden alone is:

2 032 000 guns or 21 guns per 100 residents. Of the 2 032 000 guns, 959 000 where rifles, 726 000 shotguns, 122 000 combination rifles, 88 000 pistols, 55 000 revolvers, 3 000 automatic guns and 78 000 weapons parts.

It seems Sweden can own pistols and revolvers, I wasn’t aware.

Germany has the fourth highest gun-ownership in the world, there are 5.5 million firearms in Germany....my Bavarian friends have 1.1 million guns alone amongst them, North Rhine-Westphalia has 1 million and Baden-Württemberg with 700,000.

Serbia has the second highest gun-ownership in the world, Switzerland the fifth.

I’m not doing the work for you beyond this. Google is your friend.

But if you want to hold onto this ridiculous MYTH like some Americans that “Europe is disarmed”, “at least Americans can defend ourselves unlike you Europeans who’ve been disarmed”....then ENJOY your MYTH.

It’s a myth, it’s NOT fact.
