I mentioned in this post the lack of trigger discipline in a gun magazine from 1956. And, via Mike, seems we have come a long way in gun safety:
I’d say it’s the result of more widespread info with respect to gun safety.

Whatever they were doing 1904 to 1909, it worked. The accident rates hit a low not seen again for three decades!

That’s the first thing that struck me, too. It coincides with the popularity of semi-auto pocket pistols, hmmm. Also, though, with the phase-out of black powder, hmmm. In a truly inquisitive academic environment, there would be a thesis or two available in this field.

Be Careful! Why, if I was a member of the Brady Bunch, I could point to the Passage of every piece of Gun Control Legislation on that Graph and say “See! The less Guns that are available, the less Accidents that Occur! Why, if we just Ban and Confiscate ALL Guns from the hands of Private Citizens, why, the AD Rate wouldn’t even exist!”
That is, if anyone other than their Political Cronies actually listened to them…..
