In short, prior to 2007, if you wanted to buy a gun in Missouri, whether from a Licensed Gun Dealer or from a private individual, you were required to obtain a license verifying that they have passed a background check. The study found that the law's repeal was associated with an additional 55 to 63 murders per year in Missouri between 2008 and 2012.
Does this change the national debate on background checks?
