    So, how many guns have you got, huh ? ...

    No, I don't want to know.
    Nearly 400 million guns in America. That's a lot of
    potential civilian firepower, if it were ever to be needed.
    The Japanese in WW2 wondering about invading the US
    figured they'd be facing a gun behind every blade of grass.

      And a few Cap'nballs wouldn't be amiss. Plus an air rifle or two.

        That pretty well sums it up as an absolute minimum. Anything above that might be the start of a collection.

                Yeah. And a "light rifle" -- say a .243. And a "heavy rifle" for elk, moose, griz and -- hey! you might go to Africa some day.

                  How about the military collectibles? You know, the wall hangers that will never be hung! Must have a Garand, carbine and M14. Now that is 3 different calibers. So, Have to get some others to match those calibers. And so on!

                          I can't count all the guns I have now. I've been buying them dirt cheap from the patriotic recyclers in Arkansas and Missouri.

                            And only 31 percent of the people in the US own guns. Supposedly based on a survey by some "think tank" in Switzerland. Hahahaha! You've got this ... right?

                            <phone rings> "Hi, my name's Leon. You got any guns?"

                            You: "Sure. Doesn't everybody?"

                            Leon: "Well, how many you got?"

                            You: "Hmmm... let me go count them. Be right back . . .


                            Ummm ... right! Utter BS. Those who see themselves as "political influencers" will never be at a loss for "facts" as long as they can just manufacture them out of thin air.

                              My doctor's nurse asked me if I had any guns in the house, and, were they loaded. I said that I used to have my Grandpa's old shotgun, but I gave it to my nephew. I never checked to see if it was loaded. When my doctor read that, he laughed his ass off. Regards, Clark
