The U.S. population increased from 133 million in 1945 to 313 million in 2012, a 135% increase in population, or over a 200% increase in the number of guns per capita.

Isn't it a 235% increase??

Does this list include the tens of thousands of handguns seized in NYC over the years, then in the 1970s they obtained three Coast Guard Cutters to haul them out to sea and dump them?

Anyone who makes light of this has a cold and willful disregard for a critical fault in society. The chart shows a disturbing and undisputable truth.

Namely, why it’s difficult to find a nice pinned and recessed, post-war S&W (K or N-frame) revolver. Look at the number of post-war guns, and now look at the number of current grubby fisted mokes trying to lay hands on them. Get away, I saw it first!

It would be interesting to compare the increases to those of “gun violence’ (cough) and “auto violence”.

I hope to pick up a SCAR sometime in the next year.
