    Default CBS - How armed is your state.

    Article on CBS about how many registered firearms are in each state not including pistols.

    I feel like I have seen this before. Clearly one sided on a certain agenda. My first thought reading California was, okay out of those "registered" firearms how many are involved in crimes? Did the article go into that? No. That's ridiculous. Then when you get to Colorado it is a picture of Firing Line...which is close to the Aurora Theater where the shooting took place. Why is that necessary? It's not. More agenda. I hate the news.

    The first page has the methodology.


    "Here is a look at per capita weapons data, based on the ATF's National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record, and 2013 data from the U.S. Census.

    While the ATF's National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record is the only accessible list of its kind, it is not all-inclusive. NFA firearms only include the categories regulated by The National Firearms Act of 1934: machine guns, short-barreled rifles, short-barreled shotguns, suppressors, destructive devices like bombs and grenades, concealable devices with the ability to discharge a shot through the energy of an explosive, and any firearm with a bore over half an inch that has not been determined to have a legitimate sporting use."

    Having lived there for several years, I believe that it is. However, not legal guns per local laws....but believe me the guns are there. LOL

    The CBS report is complete bunk, and similar to extrapolating the ownership of pick-up trucks across the country based on the number of registered Lamborghinis and Ferraris.

    WY is #1. I'm betting most of those "registered guns" are suppressors.
