Original Note:
While the CDC data on homicides do show a significant decline in the number of homicides. FBI data shows that handguns not rifles are the primary weapon in homicides. A trend which continues even today. The decline of rifles use is negligible at best but remains mostly stable. https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2001/table2-10_vicweapon97-01.xls
