"65,376,373 Guns Bought Since Obama Took Office..." -- Via Matt
If I am counting the commas correctly - that is ~ 1 for every 5 Americans (313,914,040 - Jul 2012 = 4.8) Or, About 1/2 adults.
The story is on CNS = not my favorite news source - I put them in line with Al Jazzera (AJE - Al Jazeera English) and above CBS.
And it refers to Background checks, some of those will have been rejected, of course.
That number doesn't cover firearms which changed hands in private party sales.
