The way I look at the 80 Million gun owners is relatively simple math.
While I know that there is no way all 80 Million will fight I also know that even 1% of that 80 Million would mean 800,000 very ticked off Patriots fighting and a very large percentage of these fighters would be people like us who own Fighting Rifles and purchase ammo by the case.
800,000 Armed Fighters would decimate the forces that the Government could send against us.
There is one caveat, the Freedom Fighters are willing to do what is necessary to win and do not let morality or mercy get in the way.
And these 800,000 Fighters would not need to be in Militia Groups to win the war or even in any group, that many Fighters even operating as Lone Wolves would defeat the Enemy.
And as I see it the actually number of Fighters would be a lot greater then 1%.
