In America, about a quarter of the adult population owns a gun. What kind of people? That varies greatly. Most are owned by law abiding people. They include hunters, recreational target shooters, people that keep a gun for defense, and people that use guns in their work (ranching, farming, police officers, security guards) Some are young, some old, some rich, some not so rich, some doctors and lawyers, some plumbers and carpenters. Some people DO own guns that they use for illegal purposes.

BTW, I am on vacation this week. I will be spending tomorrow at the rifle range- I am a male senior citizen. Shooting with me will be my granddaughter. She is 14, and a great shot with a rifle.
