It looks like that because Switzerland has mandatory military service and after that people keep their service rifle at home (but without ammunition). But it’s not at all comperable to the gun situation in America.
Actually thats the funny and really sad thing. America has guns as they copied the swiss system of an armed militia then kept the guns and abolished the militia creating the basket case they have now with a shitonne of guns and not enough people trained to be safe with them.
