"the ATF's National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record"

Can someone elaborate? Where is the authority given to have a Federal firearms registry?

[OldSmaj]

...some guns go unregistered.

Oh, surely not!

Why would a decent, law-abiding, productive member of our society NOT want the Goobermint to know every gun one has?

I know I don't care if they know.

(Do I really need the sarcasm tag?)

The sample was 4,000 adults nationwide.

There are 326 MILLION people in the USA.

A .123% sample cannot approach an extrapolate-able estimate.

This, like so many other “studies”, is utterly worthless.

[rktman]

Thanks. As has been noted in this thread and probably many other times, the numbers are suspect after noting the sample numbers used.

[right way right]

Ha! Like they have a clue?

[elcid1970]

“Their survey, published in 2015, asked a representative sample of 4,000 adults nationwide whether they own firearms.”

Like anyone with a lick of common sense will answer `yes’ to an anonymous phone pollster demanding to know if one owns guns.

[rktman]

That's like 80 people in each state. (Approx). Yeah, that's representative of the actual numbers. 🐂💨💩🍿🍻😹🇺🇸

Delaware comes in last place? How can that be?

Delaware is called The First State ........ THE First State.

The 3 that ring hollow are Ohio and Nebraska, which seem too low, and the most preposterous is Hawaii at #11.

[rktman]

Give jo "hands on"(🖐🏻) Biden a call.

[doorgunner69]

Some of us do the job of many.

[ought-six]

Hawaii is at 45%????? I find that unbelievable.

I’m In Illinois, and it’s just over 26%. If you take out Cook County (which includes, of course, Chicago), the number would be closer to 70%.

[rktman]

Like someone posted, sample rate of 4,000 folks out of 300+ million that answered honestly..........so, grain of salt. Is your house at or above 100%? Ours was. Boat incident.

How can firearm ownership stop a Silent Coupe such as the one we have been watching unfold?

[Donkey Odious]

Hard to believe the stats....When I was a real estate appraiser, I entered many, many homes in both Oregon and Texas. Gun cases were common with multiple guns.

[Big Red Badger]

Hey Ma!
You finish the Oil change?

Well Rotate My tires!

[arrogantsob]

What does gunownership or lack of have to do with stopping a Silent Coupe?

We are fighting a totally different kind of war and better learn how to fight it.

As things stand the Left has run rings around traditionalist Americans and control every major institution in our society.

[Fightin Whitey]

Vermont, Maine, New Hampshire, the Dakotas...are very peaceful with very little or no violent crime

They also lack the large dependent criminal demographic.

[Big Red Badger]

That about sums it up.

Oh How We burned,
