Hello. I'm embroiled in an argument or debate regarding the merits of gun control in the US and Canada. At this moment I'm arguing some points raised by Moore's 'Bowling for Columbine'.
There were 4 essential things that people in my group discussed, I've been working on my response for 3 hours, it's 2 AM and I'm mentally hosed. So, I would appreciate help with the following.
I need a legitimate, objective* guesstimate or number of firearms in the US.
Thank you all too much.

* Objective: Not from Brady et al, not from Texas gun fondlers association. Numbers that I won't have to inherently defend to hostile crowd. eg - if FBI has stats on it, those would be ideal.
