That scoped rifle in the first pic looks like a single shot pellet gun.  Give me a break!

32 guns is not many, wifes father owns a beautiful Remington shotgun and purchased a Glock 19 recently all legal, papers etc. I was told that all the people around where they live own guns, they live in the countryside

I wonder! 

 

Does no one in authority look at this and think...mmmm.....do we have a gun problem?

 

Although some on here might say yes.....there simply aren't enough out there.
