Lol. I'm actually surprised the left actually realized that many gun owners don't report ownership at all. This is common practice in states like CA with red flag laws. As a rule of thumb, people are actually advised by attorneys to deny firearms ownership for hospital/medical visits because of rampant abuse by medical staff in reporting and police taking guns just to take them. Those mandatory little sheets you fill out at every medical visit in CA (Do you own a gun? Is there a gun in the house? Are you a victim of DV? Are u a danger? Ect..) are where anti gunners get their stats. When people rapidly discover via word of mouth that the system is rigged, they stop providing info voluntarily. There is also a large swath of people that don't seek help because the risk of losing rights is guaranteed.
