What we see is that nearly 32% of all adults in the USA own one or more guns. Naturally, some own more and some own many.
The question is, does this agree with measures of household gun ownership rates? One example, provided by the paper’s author, was: “If you have two households, each with a husband and wife, and only one of those four people owns a gun, then if you polled them all you would find 25% individual ownership and 50% household ownership.” He also opined that his data would likely lead to a roughly 45% household gun ownership rate, which is aligned with those recorded by Pew, Gallup, ABC, and other sources.
