Guns are like underwear. Most people don’t mention what they have.
Likely double that govt estimate.

When the gov’t is afraid of you, you have freedom.
When you’re afraid of the gov’t, you have tyranny.

Firearms are tools.
Now do screwdrivers or wrenches.

“There are about 533 million firearms in private hands in the United States of America in 2025.” I’d say that ain’t near enough.

I'm okay with this average. But we need to raise it to 2.0 at a minimum. Every man, woman, and child needs a fall-back firearm just in case their regular carry weapon falls into the lake.

Seems low... Good.
The government should NOT know exactly how many arms we have.

No wonder that in 1941, just days before the Pearl Harbor attack, Congress reaffirmed Second Amendment rights and prohibited gun registration. In 1968, bills to register guns were debated, with opponents recalling the Nazi experience and supporters denying that the Nazis ever used registration records to confiscate guns. The bills were defeated, as every such proposal has been ever since, including recent āuniversal background checkā bills.
The lies we have been told over the years...
1962 We ONLY want to register handguns. Rifles will not be affected!
1964, We ONLY want to register ALL firearms, not ban them.
1968 We ONLY want to register all guns, and ban the import of foreign Saturday Night Specials, and 5-shot bolt action army surplus rifles! (they got the ban).
1970, We ONLY want to ban small American handguns. Rifles will not be affected!
1976 We ONLY want to ban ALL handguns! Rifles will not be affected!
1981, Actress Lee Grant on Good Morning America (ABC) screams...āTHE NRA IS A RIFLE ORGANIZATION! THEY SHOULD GIVE UP THEIR HANDGUNS AND THEY CAN KEEP THEIR RIFLES!ā
1984, they came for the rifles.
1994..When they thought they had banned “As-s-s-ault rifles they did not shut off the lights and go home. they immediately went after their next target, .50 cal single shot rifles “THAT CAN TAKE DOWN AN AIRPLANE!”
They will never be satisfied till they have an unarmed population.

"...1.55 firearms for every person in the United States."
And that's not even counting all the unregistered handguns the Socialist Democrat blue city FELONS have tucked into the back of their baggy-@ss pants. ;)
