That said, at least three https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🇨🇦" title="Flagge von Kanada" aria-label="Emoji: Flagge von Kanada"> specific studies looked at guns, gun laws and suicide rates.
Before getting to those, I can tell you absolutely that “assault-style” rifles and handguns are rarely used in suicide.
