Wow. WAY more posties than I'd have thought.
But read the whole thing. It's very interesting.
But there is another key question seldom addressed:
How many registered machine gun OWNERS are there? MUCH fewer than there are guns. Most MG'ers I know have (sometimes a LOT) more than one. But it would be instructive to know an actual number. Oh well. Until ATF decides to divulge (kicking and screaming) that info I guess we'll just have to SWAG it.
Which brings up a point never, EVER aired by the MSM: Full-auto's have been registered since the National Firearms Act of 1934. 82 years. Since that time fewer than a DOZEN have EVER been used in a crime of violence by their registered owner.
ATF cannot be bothered to compile the exact number. Why? Because your government doesn't waste money on PRO-GUN stats, of course. Doesn't fit the narrative. Nothing to see here. Move along, citizen.
But do the math. 82 years. Almost half a million guns. Fewer than a dozen. (HINT: Its a leetle-bitty small percentage with several zeroes to the right of the decimal point.)
