Louisiana comes in at number 10, with 15.1 guns for every 1,000 residents. That's 69,668 registered firearms among 4,625,470 people.

Edited to reflect a more accurate title

Considering firearms aren't required to be registered in La, I have trouble believing those figures

Considering that I probably have close to 15 guns in my house alone, I also don't believe that

Kind of a strange list. It doesn't include pistols, rifles and shotguns. So it is skewed really low..

I will go out on a limb and say there is 1 gun in the state of LA per LA resident.

It would be even higher if not for the alarming rate of boat accidents.

Way low...


Tons of guns change hands and never show up in any database.

those figures are flawed

many of the big militia states are in the bottom 12, lol. Those people are in the tens of thousands and are heavily packing.

New Mexico at #4.

I live in a part of New Mexico that has a huge Mormon population. As near as I can tell, they seem to be under divine obligation to keep, at all times, at least a 6 month supply of dry-goods and hard-tack as well as build up a massive aresenal for each family.

I personally know 28 Mormon familes that have 3 or more gun safes just to hold all their guns.

Keep that in mind the next time you're a dick to the two young men dressed like Radio Shack employees that show up at your front door.

Unfortunately I do not have any registered or unregistered arms in my house after the recent fishing accident.
