Sure but the GP’s point they there is little overlap is correct.

Out of approx 400,000,000 guns, only very roughly 12,000 are used in crime. There is less than 0.01% overlap.

Not sure where you got this number from. The US had 13,500 firearm homicides in 2018.

If you include the number of persons shot but not killed directly you are looking at about 20x that number.

And that doesn’t include firearms used in other crimes of violence.

If your numbers are correct, the overall point still stands.
