I don't know, but there's a huge difference between just "owning a gun" and having a loaded gun on your body or within easy reach at all times. The first kind of gun owner might not have any desire or intent to use a firearm in self-defense. His or her gun might be an unloaded hunting rifle in a zippered case in the attic. Such a person would be just like any other crime victim. The person who carries a loaded and ready pistol in a holster on her belt, however, has thought about being a violent crime victim and has decided to consider using deadly force to win the encounter. People like her are rarely targeted by violent criminals, and when there is a confrontation, the armed citizen usually fights off the attackers.

It is important to clarify that guns are a tool used to commit acts of violence, rather than a separate entity that causes harm on its own.
