Hey Adam, I'm a veteran and yes, I own guns.
Who buys a jet?  Veterans who used to fly them.  Same for the helicopters.  Same for the tanks and armored personnel carriers.

In my life, I carefully chose a select few firearms. Then dad dies, uncle brother cousin.. their widows call you to come get them. By the time you’re 50, you need a vault 😂

Wanna see the kind of armor Americans can make, check out the Killdozer. And that was just a guy pissed at his corrupt local gov.

Plus another thing he doesn't talk about is. Once nato soldiers have been defeated, the militia, take their equipment and weapons and use it against them as they did in the movie Red Dawn. WOLVERINES.

One issue we do not have a gun registry in the US. They have no clue how many are out there.

Guns in most states do not need to be registered. In fact, a gun registry is illegal here.

500 million "registered" guns is an unbelievably unconstitutional statement. The 2nd Amendment says we shouldn't have to register our guns

Uhh why is he going to handicap us by limiting us to "legally" owned firearms?

I only see one problem with the premise of this video: most US gun owners are not "registered". Most states do not register gun owners; only the handful of the most liberal, most 2A-antagonistic states do that (i.e. CA, NY, IL, etc), and the main reason they do it is in hopes of one day being able to ban guns outright - and then having running lists of the gun owners that they can then use to go around to confiscate them. The rest at least partially understand what "shall not be infringed" actually means.

The simple fact is that, aside from maybe tracking gun SALES, there's no real way to know how many Americans are gun owners. And that's the way we prefer it.

Poland is the little European Texas, we like Poland over here haha

Nobody else has a Navy with enough troop transport capacity to shuffle a useful amount of men from Europe to America, so whoever does make it to shore would become target practice. There are a couple of scenarios/war plans that involve pushing troops in thru Canada and Mexico (the basic plot of the movie Red Dawn) but the vastness of US territory and plethora of natural barriers means that whoever does make it across the border would end up being funneleld into natural kill zones, and become target practice.

0:29 “500 Million REGISTERED!!!” That’s a key thing to always remember here!! Only God knows how many here are unofficially. 🇺🇸

Okay, so hi, I'm a former FFL(means I built and sold guns to people) and 'registered' is a loaded term people don't understand, mostly because of movies/TV shows and really bad writing.

There's only 1 actual legal registry on a federal level and that's the NFA registry from 1938. It only registers specific types of firearms like machine guns, short barreled rifles, short barreled shotguns, grenade launchers, mortars, stuff like that. Pistols, rifles, shotguns, etc are not on this registry.

Where the bad understanding comes in comes mostly from places like NYC's handgun registry, which is one of the only local handgun registries in the entire US. This becomes a big and complex topic as different states can have assault weapon registries and the like as well, but we're talking about 10 states. This still muddies the waters enough that people think that because NYC has a handgun registry and you hear about a 'registered handgun' in CSI: Whatever that handguns in the US are registered. They are not.

In the vast, VAST majority of states, for any firearms made after 1968 when serial numbers became legally mandatory, there is no gun registry. No one in government can know what you have if you live in Arkansas or Indiana or Idaho. It's not a thing.

What IS tracked, but likely not in the way you think, is the manufacturing of firearms. Companies with an FFL07 license manufacture firearms and are required to report the manufacture and the serial numbers of the guns they create. This is turned into reports on the type of guns that end up used in crime, the numbers of manufacturing of every style of firearms in boring ATF reports the average gun owner never looks at, and so on. The estimated number of guns in the US is based on these manufacturing numbers, so the people who say like 'Oh I bet it's double that' fail to realize that every gun made for over 50 years has been reported on existing as part of the manufacturing process, so no, it's not. The US still has half the worlds guns. Half. Really. That data comes from this.

The other way people think stuff is 'registered' is via the 4473 form, or the federal form you fill out when you buy a gun. Every time you buy a gun from a gun store or gun manufacturer, you're filling out an FFL form. Every time. This is the background check form to make sure you're legally able and it cross references something called the FBI NICS database. NICS isn't allowed to keep records legally for more than a few days as it is yet another way to build an illegal registry federally and this has been this way since 1993, so 30+ years now.

The 1986 Firearm Owners Protection Act and a few other pieces of legislation have really made it very difficult for default registries to just exist on a federal level. State can be a different story but for most of us that isn't a problem and currently NFA stuff has very real challenges to it including removing suppressors since 0 dollar taxes have a precedent and the current cost for suppressors, SBRs and SBS are zero dollars. It's working its way through the court. I know that was a lot of text, I hope you all learned something from it and if this interests you, The Reload and Stephen Gutowski are an excellent resource to learn more about the legal side of gun culture. Have a great day.

Wyoming, Montana, and Alaska have such high gun ownership due in large part to the wildlife in their areas.

We have already said if the US was ever in a large war like this and Canada is against us they will immediately be taken over

3:40 I live in southern Arizona. My neighbor a few properties away is part of an urban assault vehicle club. Their bbqs get a bit wild. Seeing them all come down in the road for meet ups is a sight. I love it. No one is getting past them, which means no one is getting down my road. If they somehow make it, we’re ready. Even my 5 year old is trained, best shot in the family in fact.

Your surprise is always amazing. I’m 72 and carry when I’m out.

One of my neighbors bought an AAV that the Marines used. It's an amphibious assault vehicle that he is restoring and can be used in the ocean to land on shore to drop off troops or militia. Plus the Florida Militia i  belong to we have 3 humvees.

It just sounds like another Tuesday and for the people I know without a gun they have some of the best home made hand to hand weapons I've ever seen.

Many hobbyists and hunters also have reloaders - equipment that allows them to reload casings. Growing up all of my relatives had them.  Also many people in the US that don't have guns have shot them and know how to use them.
