Exactly how many people in the crowd on Jan. 6 were armed with guns?

It's likely impossible to know.

But here's what convicted rioter Guy Reffitt said on his helmet-cam that day:

"You're probably standing around more than a million and a half guns right now."

I've seen a lot of Jan 6th video, but I don't remember this clip.

1. the millions guns mentioned

I don't believe it. I do believe thousands. Remember the militia member jumping over the bannister and his weapon was revealed? I do.

2. Of course

Even thousands could be high. There's certainly no reason to believe some guy in the crowd.

There are LOTS of videos of the day's "events". Surely someone has done an analysis of how many guns were seen?

3. The million is obviously exaggerated.

Feels like he was seeing a bunch of people carrying in order to bring it up.

4. So the comments here are about whether it was in the thousands or millions?

Seriously? Thanks Neville for posting this. Great find. Retweeted and I'm now following this NPR investigative reporter thanks to you.

6. Some of these people thought their own numbers were more than a million.
