We’re always told that neutral Switzerland is the world’s most peaceful nation. But opponents of the second amendment don’t want you to know the reason it’s so peaceful is that its citizens are armed to the teeth.
The country is crawling with assault rifles. More than 600,000 of them.
All Swiss men aged 21 to 32 men serve in Switzerland’s militia. They’re each issued an M-57 assault rifle and 24 rounds of ammunition which they’re required to keep in their homes.
After fulfilling mandatory military service, Swiss men then serve in something very similar to the U.S. National Guard. They’re issued bolt rifles and are still required to train occasionally. Women aren’t required to own guns, but they’re strongly encouraged to do so.
And you thought Swiss army knives were impressive.
