I just read the same on another site. They use the term "HARDCORE SUPER OWNERS"
They agree gun sales are up. But the majority of buyers are current firearm owners and very few new owners.
Exclusive: New survey shows just 3% of American adults own half of guns in the US, as part of most definitive portrait of gun ownership in decades

Finally! I have arrived! I am indeed part of the best 1% in History!
I don't buy it. New shooters are at a record high. I suspect some numbers foolishness is at play here.
3 percent own 50 percent of guns so 4.5 million adults own 150 million guns
Figure 150 million adults and 300 million guns in the country
150/4.5=33.333333333
So 4.5 million adults own 33 guns hmmmm that really is something isn't it.

Lets get all the statistical data defined first.
Define"what exactly a gun is" than lets re-do the math.

It is a shooty thing that spits out pointy bullet thingies really fast, makes a lot of noise and is scary to liberals.
Define the word "is".

Sounds like me after eating a three bean salad....so am I a "gun"?
So I wonder who all those people are when I go to the clerks office to drop off amendments, and those plants/actors who are paid to hang around gun shops to make them look busy, and who's buying all that ammo we can't find, and lastly, who are those 25,000,000 background check guns sold to?!?! Yep, 1%...
Gimme a freakin break, or is it brake...

I can't imagine under what circumstance anyone would tell a complete stranger how many guns they own.

My friends don't even know how many guns I own. They know I have a decent amount of them, but no one knows for sure.
Well I don't own any guns so I be in the 78% of people who are civilized and drink with their pinkey extended.

Hey Deb. I'm not quite in that upper 3% bracket yet (but I'm working on it) and let me assure you...I ain't afraid of anything.

Must have mixed that up with bullets ... I can see 3 percent of us owning 1/2 of the ammo stash

I would like to live in a slander-free, truthful, honest society as well. Time to take the pens, computers, and typewriters away from the WaPo and most so called reporters ..

Is 3% a coincidence? I think not.
their numbers dont match other common data base numbers.
Households might be a better expression of this info.
my mom doesn't really own a single gun, but shoots. the same goes with my brothers, the wives shoot but dont own!
so again,
there are Lies, damn Lies and Statistics
