Owning a gun is quite popular in the Dominican Republic to the point that it's basically widespread. Some own more than one and even different types of firearms such as rifles. Despite the effort of the government to have the civilian population voluntarily give up their guns, I think chances are slim that the population will disarm like that. The last time that was done was by the US Military in the 1920's when shortly after invading the country the entire population was disarmned by force. Some say that the concentration of arms in certain institutions and not among civilians was a factor in making Trujillo the new dictator since he had the guns.Surprise, surprise.
