Of the nine people in our section, me and one other guy had guns. At the new job, I'd say it's closer to 50% have guns.

"Why don't you tie a kerosene-soaked rag around your ankles so the ants won't climb up and eat your candy ass." - Dale Earnhardt, 1997That few, in Texas? You mean have guns or bring them in their car? My old office probably had a 50% gun ownership rate, but they were headquartered in Iowa, my office before that had a few very animate gun owners (my boss's boss kept a stack of blank FOID applications on his desk, FOIDS are required to buy guns or ammo in IL).

I am actually looking at the Barrett M98B 338 Lapua. But when I recently picked up my 12ga, the store had a Bushmaster 50 there for the same price. Here I need a permit for supressors and automatics. Getting a permit involves getting the county Sheriff's approval (which involves a few checks into your background) and paying your $200 lisence fee for each item. CCW is a seperate permit that isn't nearly as hard to get.

Then you'd be surprised at how often it's NOT the case. As I've already stated, Texas ain't the most gun-friendly state in the union...

What state are you in? A few weeks back my brother had the chance to buy an AR-30 in 338 for under $1k, but didn't. I didn't have the cash either.

Wisconsin. The info I have is from the the owner of a gunstore where I would get my firearms in a relaxed area of the state, so it might not be 100% accurate. I haven't purchased either of the afore mentioned items requiring a permit.

Congrats on winning the CC fight though. You ever go shooting at Bristol?

Yeah - the ATF even GIVES them guns. No background check or anything.

California, Illinois, New jersey, New York. Arizona is a constitutional carry, and I think it's the most gun-friendly state.

because all it takes is 20 seconds to break into one (unless your windows are shatter proof)
It takes less that 10 minutes to break into your garden variety gun safe, too. Unless you've got a built-in concrete-encased carbon fiber and lead-lined vault with a two-ton blast door, you can't rely on it.

The folks there appear to be a very pro-gun group of folks - it seems like a good number of people brings guns to work (leaving them in their cars of course). The work looks real interesting, too. :)

I think Vermont is considered the most gun friendly state. Don't know if it changed since, but at one time a VT driver's license was all you needed to purchase a gun.
Schenectady? What am I doing in Schenectady?
Everyone has to fill out the background check form, but AZ is a constitutional carry state, meaning you don't need a license to carry openly OR concealed. If you can legally own a gun (pass the FBI background check), you can carry it - anytime.
