I would have to dig pretty deep to validate the map, until then it's entertaining and coincidental...

Yeah, I kind of doubt the numbers. The government can't know how many guns I got, and for this to be true lots of people in Texas would have to not have guns. Even if 1/4 of Texans owned guns these numbers would be wrong. Everyone I know that has guns (I don't know anyone that does not) has more than 4.

probably the stupidest comparison that's been done in a while ... the US is unique in the world when it comes to the 2A Right ....
Yeah, there is no way Germany has the same number of guns as Texas. I spent 2 years in Germany, and only met a few Germans that had guns. I been in Texas 13 years and have never met a Texan that did not own at least one gun. Just between me and a few my friends offset over 100 others that don't have guns.

Odds are the parties in question are using the declassified portions of the 2000 and 2010 Censuses and available data on number of FF 4473s. A fallacy, as the present 4473 allows for up to five weapons to be purchased on one form, up from the three of years past (2011, I think... not sure).
Being compared to Finland aint all bad. Recall that they have the modern era's arguably most prolific and proficient sniper, in the person of the late Simoon Hayaa (sp?).

MAYBE if you counted police, military, and private ownership, but still only a maybe.Originally Posted by helomech
Common sense is so rare these days, it should be re-classified as a super power.
Yeah, but we have police also. Plus texas national guard, texas air guard, and so on and so on. Heck if counting military we have Fort Hood. That should be at least 100k firearms.

they're probably counting the hundreds of seacans full of guns and ammo from after WWII. Anyone need a Nagant?
