Single barrel break open shotgun and/or a .22 rifle.
survey said:A National Survey on Private Ownership and Use of Firearms (NSPOF), conducted in 1994 indicates that Americans own 192 million guns, with 36% of these consisting of rifles, 34% handguns, 26% shotguns, and 4% of other types of long guns
Someone commented in another thread that most people probably only own one gun. If that's true
There's the trouble with statistics right there: this idea that an "average" household has one gun.45% of American households contain a firearm.
I wonder how many of those newly sold guns went to households that had none before?I don't think that survey is very accurate. Would YOU tell a phone pollster about your guns? Most of probably would not and besides, MILLIONS of guns have been sold since Obama was elected setting all sorts of sales records. Practically all of them are somewhere on someones property. Why is this not reflected in the servey?
Why not start again and ask only those who own only one gun to respond and then the OP would know?
