U.S. most armed country with 90 guns per 100 people.

That’s the headline.

 Which means, based on the article, that I’m having to carry 166 of you slackers on my back.

 My take here - c’mon, visit my basement, check out the hardware… and know that I might live next door to you. 

 Or across the street.    Well, maybe not - because while everything you see there is legal where I live, it may not be in the Borg Collective where you live.

    John,

    Actually, those figures might be a tad skewed. Black Powder weapons, for the most part, do NOT qualify as firearms under Federal firearms laws. They are specifically exempt under the definition of “firearm”. Many states also follow suite with those rules.

    Considering how many of those there are floating around, we might be better armed than at first thought!

    Nothing says “Good Morning!” like a 577 Pritchard splattering a saucer-shaped sheet of lead over the rock you are hiding behind. At 600 yards… :)

    Heh.

    Good point, Tim.

    I still think there’s people out there not pulling their share of the load…

    I’m only carrying about 20 of those slackers. My bad.

    Yemen was second with 61. Given that Yemen is as poor as dirt and that Yemenite women are not allowed to dress themselves or go outside, their 61 is far more impressive than the US number.

  5. Argghhh Says:

    Well, Robert, not quite what I was after, but… okay!

    Nice gun pr0n collectin, Argghh! Mine isn’t quite as extensive, but I can safely say that I am not among those 166 on your shoulders.

  7. Argghhh Says:

    Yeah, I note the slackers aren’t in here confessing, just us extroverts.

    Hey dudes…I’m doin’ OK….2 shotguns, 1 40 cal., 1 9 MM, 1 38 and a 25 cal. Put another way…someone comes up my part of the mountain to do nasties, ain’t leavin’ the same way.

    My hubby keeps up with our share. We keep a .22 pistol and a shotgun stashed on the boat (pirates, you know). Anything more and the powers would confiscate them. I know he has the good stuff at storage.

    Ahem…

    Attention BATF&E:

    I do NOT possess any firearms. Nor guns. Nor projectile throwing weapons.

    Honest. Really. Nothing here for you. No reason for you to tear my house apart while pretending to search.

    Jules, you’re site does weird things with symbols.

    That last line was supposed to be:

    .plus shift - waves hand in semi circular fashion-, plus shift “These are not the guns you are looking for.”
