Gius’ study, “An Examination of the Effects of Concealed Weapons Laws and Assault Weapons Bans on State-Level Murder Rates,” published in the latest issue of the academic journal, “Applied Economics Letters,” also found that assault weapons bans did not significantly affect murder rates at the state level. These results also suggest that restrictive concealed weapons laws may cause an increase in gun-related murders at the state level. Gius used data for the period from 1980 to 2009 for the study.
