The small arms survey was released and said there are over a billion guns world wide the US has almost 400 million of those. I saw an article breaking down that number further.
Some highlights
The United States military has about 4 million guns and every police force in the nation collectively has about 1 million.
In the months of April and May the fbi conducted over 4 million background checks for gun purchases.
Between the years 2012-2017 the fbi did over 135 million background checks for purchases. According to the small arms survey every military in the world has about 133 million guns.
I just thought it would be an interesting topic for discussion.
