79+ million normal capacity rifle magazines (that seems very low).
20 million modern sporting rifles (also seems very low).
Millions more transactions this year over last year, which was also a record setting year.
Gun-Grabbers, people aren't spending their money to meekly turn around and hand them into the local popo.
They're also not buying so many magazines that several vendors have put purchase limits on them to turn around and register them as NFA devices (and shell out $200).
By the way, in 2018 the estimate was 393 million guns.
The military and police? 5.5 million guns.
Um...
And we're on what might be the precipice of a civil war.
Hey Gubmint, you might wanna tone down that rhetoric a mite.
I'm still going with WeaponsMan's conservative estimate from several years ago, which was closer to 600M.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'd add the last 2-3 years' production and purchases to that.
I suspect we're getting to where 1B isn't a wild leap.
And probably somewhere in the neighborhood of 1-2T for rounds of ammo.
Gonna be quite a party, even at the low end estimates.
Hey Angus;
ReplyDeletethe problem is that the ones schilling the most for "registration, confiscation and so forth live in this bubble and believe that only good people think like they do and if you don't then you are evil subhuman and deserve to be destroyed "In the name of humanity" or something like that...the fire of a true believer is what they are and they believe that they are on a mission to convert or kill everyone else "For your own good mind you because we know what is best for you." They ain't gonna listen to reason until their bubble is shattered or until a bunch of them are no longer breathing because they pushed an issue that should not have been pushed.
Last time I got called subhuman to my face, I snapped back, "Eloi always discriminate against Morlocks. But that's OK, it's almost supper time."
DeleteThey didn't get it.
