Guns in India
1 Billion Indians - into 40 million guns = slacking behind the USA.
40/1000 = .04
In India, the annual income of most people is less than the cost of the gun

How hard is it to acquire a gun?
First you have to get a licence.
Applicants have to be at least 21 years old, and must prove a "genuine reason", such as a threat to their life, or an interest in target shooting.
Revenue authorities and police carry out a "thorough check" of the applicant's background. They must undergo a medical check-up to prove they are physically healthy, of sound mind, and able to handle a weapon. If the applicant has a criminal record, their request is turned down.
Civilians can only own handguns. They are not allowed to possess automatic firearms.
A person can own a maximum of three guns and the licence has to be renewed every three years.
