There Are Three Republican Presidential Candidates Who Don’t Own A Gun

(Before It's News)

The Telegraph recently published a chart revealing which candidates in the crowded Republican presidential primary field own guns. Along with that information was each White House hopeful’s National Rifle Association rating.

Only three of the 17 Republicans polled responded that they were not gun owners. Carly Fiorina was one such candidate, though it is worth noting that her husband owns six guns for the household. Fiorina earned an “A” rating by the NRA.

Jeb Bush, who has an even higher “A+” rating, is another candidate without a gun.

Chris Christie, the final GOP contender without a gun, earned the second-lowest NRA marks with a “C.”

While the issue of gun rights is important to many Republican voters, the chart suggests a candidate’s popularity is not tied to his or her personal gun collection. Jim Gilmore, for example, owns more guns than any of his GOP competitors; yet he has struggled to tally the one percent support required for inclusion in the next debate.

The primary front-runner, Donald Trump, said he owns one handgun and maintains a concealed carry license despite New York’s strict regulation. Marco Rubio, Rick Perry and John Kasich also own one handgun each.

Three candidates – Ben Carson, Rand Paul and Bobby Jindal – reported owning at least one gun, though additional details were not provided.

Does this information change your opinion of any candidate? Share your thoughts in the comments section below.
