There are more guns in the country than there are people. And only 32% of American adults own guns. So if only a 1/3 of adults, who make up 2/3 of the population, own guns and there more guns than people, then the average gun owner owns 5 guns.
I would say owning 5 guns is close to hoarding but maybe not quite there. However, that’s the average. I know many gun owners who only have 1 or 2 guns. That means there are a lot of people who own a lot more than 5 guns.
No they do not. Firearms are not cheap and neither is ammo.

That’s a revolver, a pistol, a hunting riffle, a shotgun, and an AR/AK.
5 guns for 5 different jobs and you could carry them to the car in a single trip.
“Hoarding” is like… what people who have compounds do.
Most people own 1-3 in their house hold. The rest are collectors and have 10+
So are rich assholes or marginalized people more likely to be able to afford them?
