But not ammunition

Allow me to be sceptical about that. How does one explain that 10% of French murders, and 75% of Swiss murders, are by firearm?

Italy also has a high rate of murder by gun (66%), (source), which my prejudice leads me to ascribe to organised crime and illegal weapons. Perhaps it is the same in Switzerland?
