More people are killed by fists and feet and arms than by rifles of any kind, including the AR-15. About 20% more. Edged weapons kill about 3 times as many people as rifles.
Firearms, including rifles, are used defensively to save lives over 1-million times per year in the USA alone, conservatively. Some estimates, place it at 2.5 million, but the very worst is 300k, estimated by the Obama administration. Even that low estimate of defensive uses is 20x the number of firearm murders.
Most murders occur in the major cities, with the strictest gun control laws. Without these cities, our national murder rate drops significantly. Here are the 8 most murderous cities in order, in the US 5 years ago, may differ year to year. Just an observation.
