Monthly Survey of Gun Researchers

HICRC has begun sponsoring very short monthly surveys of gun researchers.  The first survey found that a large majority agreed with the statement “In the United States, having a gun in the home increases the risk of suicide.”  The second survey found that a sizable majority disagreed with the statement “In the United States, guns are used in self-defense far more often than they are used in crime.” Detailed results of each survey are posted on this website under Firearm Researcher Surveys.
