Survey Of Americans On Fishing, Hunting and Shooting
From Outdoor Life
The survey is a comprehensive study on American’s attitudes about outdoor activity over a 30 year period. It is a 100 page PDF with lots of interesting charts and graphs.
Actual Gun Ownership May Be Closer To 60%!
From The Washington Examiner and The Reload:
At the lowest end, it’s likely that at least 40% of Americans own guns, according to a groundbreaking study of those who lie to pollsters about firearms.
The study from Rutgers University’s New Jersey Gun Violence Research Center is spreading like wildfire in the industry, which for years has tried to accurately estimate United States gun ownership and determine why polls show support for gun control, but then there is little follow through when legislation is proposed.
Short Safety Video Can Make Kids Safer Around Guns
From The Reload:
Those are the findings of a randomized clinical trial published by the JAMA Pediatrics journal earlier this week. It examined how children aged 8 to 12 interact with a real gun after watching a gun-safety video at home. They were compared to those who watched a car-safety video at home instead. Of the 216 full participants, those who watched the gun-safety video were less likely to touch the gun or pull its trigger and more likely to tell an adult.
Study Says More Armed Civilians Equals Less Crime
From NRA-ILA:
Overall, the study notes, between 2007 and 2014, as permit numbers have increased, “murder rates have fallen from 5.6 to 4.2 (preliminary estimates) per 100,000. This represents a 25% drop in the murder rate at the same time that the percentage of the adult population with permits soared by 156%. Overall violent crime also fell by 25 percent over that period of time.â€
