What was the status of gun ownership in Hitler's Germany? And what are we to make of this?

After German doctors became the first to identify the link between smoking and lung cancer,[1] Nazi Germany initiated a strong anti-tobacco movement[2] and led the first public anti-smoking campaign in modern history.[3]

Dakota,

In Nazi Germany, as in the Weimar Republic that preceded it, there were gun registration laws that restricted ownership of military weapons (as distinct from hunting weapons), and required government licensure for weapons dealing.

I have to say, i truly don't understand your point about Nazi Germany and tobacco.
