The criteria used to evaluate the States as far as friendly to gun ownership are absurd.

I simply do not see their correlation.

I agree. Oklahoma at #30 is outrageous.

Yep, OK is even ahead of Texas.

I think he is focused on Concealed Carry and Open Carry and handguns.

But if you look at the states who are the most free of government interference in their lives, this list makes no sense.

I spent 7 years in OK and loved it. Under the right circumstance would move back in a heartbeat. But Texas is home for my family. One of my ancestors was born in Texas during The Republic. More went GTT from AL during Reconstruction because they were burned out there for resisting the Carpet Bagger occupation. That left and indellible mark for 125 years. Until the 1970’s there was really no Republican Party in Texas. Now the GOP controls it, because Texas is not leftist.
