We had a similar discussion a while ago about the number of folks who had a revolver.

I thought during that conversation that there is a way to know the total number of revolvers manufactured up until the period we were discussing in comparison to the population of the US at the time. A little harder to know the number of revolvers available in the geographic area under discussion but at least we would have a number to start with.

This question about horses may be a little more difficult because it might be harder to pin down the total number of horses available.
