That’s why I think firearms ownership is greatly underestimated. Let alone the liberals that would just be ashamed to admit they actually own firearms.
NICKS checks are some of the only real numbers they have. But even with that you’re still just guessing.. Just too many different scenarios exist.
Seeing how serial numbers weren’t even required until 1968 I don’t think they even have a good number on how many firearms are in circulation.
After all a 1911, high power, revolver, rifle, shotgun etc… made in the 40’s Is still a very viable weapon today. The technology really hasn’t changed that much
