A lot of people think that the criminals still carry cheap guns, but this is far from the truth. Think of it like this. When you buy a gun for self defense, you most likely buy the best gun you can afford or one that has a good track record of being a dependable firearm.
Now you may go to the range and target shoot or practice, but the chance of you ever using that gun in a real shootout with someone is very slim.
Now when it comes to the criminal, he is most often not trained, but his chance of being in a shooting is pretty high. It may be that he has to use his gun in the course of a crime, defend himself from another criminal, or attack another criminal.
Most of the shootings in the city I work in are drug related. We had right at 100 homicides last year and even more attempt murders. The average victim in shootings is a black male 16 to 26 years of age and the average shooter is a black male 16 to 26 years of age.
