They mentioned something about it being an offence to possess a gun. The militias are consolidating power by controlling the gun supply. Although there are a lot weapons in the states, without the ability to produce new bullets, you would run out of bullets eventually. Would that happen in 20 years? Who knows, although the show did hint at some period of total chaos/war.
