Regaurdless of the percentage, the number of weapons is still very high. Based on the numbers above, 20,500 weapons originated in the US. That is only in the span of a year, and only account for the weapons that were confiscated. That does not include the weapons that are there and being used. 20,500 weapons is only the tip of the iceburg when it comes to the amount of weapons that flow over the boarder. I know for sure that the mexican drug cartel are not lacking weapons due to the crackdown by the US and Mexico on weapons thru the boarder. Otherwise, the mexican military would not be outgunned by the drug lords. That is really saying something when just the weapons flowing out of the US supplying the drug lords is so massive, that they are armed better than even the Mexican military.
You think 20,000 guns is a lot? I guarantee you that there are more than 20,000 guns right here in Tucson.
