Yet, statistics show, unlike handguns or shotguns, rifles account for only a fraction of homicides in the United States. Of 12,664 murder victims last year, only 323 were killed with rifles, according to the FBI



according to the department of justice 2004 figures, knives accounted for about twice as many fatalities as shotguns and rifles together. handguns were about 5 times as many fatalities as knives.

Not exact, but from memory it came to about

handguns 75%
knives 14 or 15%
shotguns 5%
rifles 3 %
