108: A Crime Guns 101


Listen Later

So, what exactly is a crime gun anyway? In this episode, host JJ chats with some members of the Brady crime gun initiative team on what everyone needs to know about crime guns, what a supply-side approach to ending gun violence is, and why gun dealers need to be involved in the conversation. Joining JJ is Josh Scharff, Erica Rice, Anneliese Dickman, and Steve Lindley of the Brady combating crime guns team, and Stephan Abrams of Team Enough; together, we break down statistics like why only 5% of gun dealers are responsible for 90% of recovered crime guns, yet how crime guns persist in the US.
