Interesting article found
HERE, focused on how Chicago criminals/inmates obtain guns, their main reasons for the avenues used, and what the intended uses are.
Background checks place a burden on law-abiding citizens which criminals easily avoid.

Thank goodness this study was performed. I could have never guessed the outcome beforehand!
According to the Chicago-Tribune, Crime lab co-director Harold Pollack said the study shows that “some of the pathways [regarding guns] people are concerned about don’t seem so dominant.” He said very few inmates indicated using gun shows or the internet. Rather, they get the guns in undetectable ways on the street.

Doubtful any actual studies were performed. Chicago is a criminal haven...it's comical that these 'studies' had figured out what is considered the obvious outcome.

They have to do a study of the obvious. If you don't, when we have the argument, the libs all say "are there any reputable studies to support your claim?" This helps put a check in the box.

Someone should have told Shannon Miles (shooter of Houston Deputy) to ditch his gun. I read where he took it home and it proved to be some of the evidence for his arrest.

It's a double edged sword. The Antis won't believe any study, or survey that doesn't come from THEIR reputable source...
Because bluntly...
if their stupidazzes won't believe the Uniform Crime Report from the FBI/DOJ... they're too stupid to believe anything elese.
