2.3 Guns per Average Household

Featured Replies

So I am having lunch with my younger brother, and just like everybody else, having the debate of the day of what is going on. He tells me, that when in high school, one of his teachers would always take a poll of the class who had what. Some had 1, some 2, others none, some multiple. But without fail, it averaged 2.3 guns per household as an average.

 

I just started laughing, and he asked why. I am one of 6 children, and I am the only one who has guns. but I have enough guns, that as a family, we now averaged 3 guns per household. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Doesn't make me a bad person... But you do the math...

So why would a HS teacher even be concerning himself about this, let alone asking his students this question?

That was back in 1988, a very different time. almost a civics class.

OK. Didn't realize that.

I have exactly that many.. 2.3

 

Only a brand new member would believe that. I don't even know you, but know you have at LEAST a solid 3.

At one time I had 39 Garands and 27 1911s! besides wheel guns and modern bolt and lever action. I had 2 24 gun safes that really hold 50 long guns each.[inverted and interlocking] plus shotty's. now down to about 10 handguns, well maybe a few more. And about 15 long guns. So me and my 2 sons averaged 50-75 per household.

I don't believe anybody on this forum is in the AVERAGE. (except for newbies)

 

Considering my family of siblings is 6, and I am the only one. And we average above 3 per household, yo just maybe right. Hahahaha

Wait, you guys actually OWN guns?

 

I thought this was just an enthusiast board...
