But would you concede that shootings in America seem un-proportional to other western countries?Swiss people are armed to the teeth yet don't seem to have as many loose units.

Oops... cheap, DIY automatic submachine guns?
This post won't last... get it while it's hot!
EDIT: on reflection... you'd have to be a pretty good machinist, but you could easily mass produce blowbacks if you were set up for it.

It is interesting that you mention New Zealand having a fairly sizable portion of the population in ownership of firearms yet the deaths per capita are far lower than the US.

I think its a valid question.No one I know of outside of America understands their deadly fascination with guns and wishing to carry them at all times.And yes times have changed from 220 odd years ago.
