Which state residents own the most firearms

This is wildly inaccurate especially in regards to New England. This used an anti-gun "study" that claimed RI only had around 3k gun owners. That number of 3k comes from the number of active RI Attorney General-issued concealed carry permits during the previous AG administration. Gun owners in RI don't need carry permits to own guns. Further, the AG is only one of two permit issuing authorities in RI: the municipalities issue shall-issue permits also. This past January, at least 6k pro-gun people showed up at the State House for a legislative hearing and shut down the State House because they exceeded the fire code building capacity.

The idea that Maine and Mass are tied for gun ownership rates is laughable, as well as NH having a lower rate than Mass.

Edit: I know the guy on the left in the picture for RI with glasses and the yellow button. That picture is at around eight years old.
