On June 23, a paper on the underreporting of firearm ownership was published in the Journal " Social Psychiatry and Psychiatric Epidemiology" . The title is "Predicting potential underreporting of firearm ownership in a nationally representative sample", hereafter referred to as the paper. The paper indicated the number of people who refuse to report they are firearm owners, who have been called "shy" firearms owners, are about as numerous as firearms owners who are willing to identify themselves as such.

My sister is one of those shy gums owners. But her attitude on that seems to be changing lately. Even taking a train course now.

Considering the jump in gun ownership due to BLM riots/COVID, plus women being the largest growing segment of gun owners, the notion that only 30ish% of people owning guns is laughable.
