Even at a federalies:citizen kill ratio of 10:1, the federalies run out of troops by week 2 and the surviving citizens kill all the politicians, their families, their lawyers, their enablers and supporters, and their families.

This has been gamed out at the war colleges for many decades and this is how it has turned out every time. Everyone loses.

Active Duty + Reserves < 1% of US population

Approx .7% (including support personnel).

Hard to envision the US military used to subdue a country and a population the size of ours (even if they were so inclined, which a majority would not be).

Average ratio of sworn police / citizen 2:1000

I can envision the rabble taking to the streets and trying to burn down the cities (since it’s happened before) but I don’t see how that benefits Obama.

First of all, WHY would the feds game this out, for what purpose? The mere fact that it has speaks to the nature of the people in charge.

Second, no, not everyone loses. Yes, the free forces lose a lot - but the statists cease to exist. Did the Russians lose on the Eastern Front in WW2, or did the Nazis? Yes, it was bloody, but the Russians clearly won. That is similar to the gamed result you mentioned.

By the way, I'd love to see such a study, or at least a link to it. I'd also like to know how recent it was - because we proles have been buying about 10 million guns a year for the past several years, and have severely strained the supply of ammo in process. I'll bet that such studies would need to be revised to reflect these facts.
