#25: Instruments of Crime: Illicit weapons in the United States

1 - Artist : Small Arms Survey - Title : Instruments of Crime: Illicit weapons in the United States - Album : Small Arms Survey podcast

• 23.09.2014 • 6 min 16 sec

Contrary to the impression given by Hollywood's depictions, most firearms seized from drug traffickers and gang members in the United States are handguns, not automatic rifles or sub-machine guns. In this podcast, senior researcher Matt Schroeder highlights and explains key findings from his analysis of more than 140,000 records on firearms seized from criminals in eight US cities. These findings were released this summer as a chapter in Small Arms Survey 2014: Women and Guns.
