At this point in very rough numbers, about half of all the privately owned small arms in the world are in the US.

(18,483 posts)It's a really fun movie. I especially like his dealings with his uncle in the Ukraine.
A really great line... "We'll cut them in." You'll have to see the movie.

I haven't read anything much on ammo stockpiles but I have some rather large suspicions.
