The defense forces of the United States are reported to have 2,700,000 firearms
The estimated total number of guns (both licit and illicit) held by civilians in the United States is 270,000,000 to 310,000,000.
Besides if they started that mess when it was over who would make all the subs, jets, firearms, ect. You do not think its the generals or members of congress that make them do you ?
