These studies aren't worth spit because everbody knows you don't tell anybody how many guns you have. Or what caliber they may be. Long or short, old-style or semi.
Nothing. Not even here.

Only 8.1 guns per owner? Hmmm....seems a little light.

I have probably 15 powder burners and about the same number of airguns. There are huge gaps in my gun needs.
Still, I can remember when Daddy only had a .22 Remington model 513, a Single barrel Essex shotgun and a WWII trophy Luger. He did buy a Browning Auto 5 around 1958 but had sold the Luger by then.

I don’t know of anybody that owns just one gun. Still, I give the study a little more credit than you do. But in the end I think it’s just an educated guess more than a “study”.

Agreed.
Anyone divulging what they own is asking for trouble.
I advise folks not to talk about their weapons at all. Don’t talk about ammo or any devices you may own.

Tell a doctor you have guns and it’s entered into a federal database - I suspect that MANY gun owners are quiet about their hardware when some snowflake calls them and asks.
