    Good news: you can read a chart correctly!

    Bad news: It seems that there are approximately 120 civilian owned firearms per 100 persons in the USA: 2017 survey. See particularly the “Estimating Global Civilian-held Firearms Numbers” briefing paper and its annex. That seems to be the survey that most reports are based on. I don’t imagine the number has dropped over the interveneing years.
