Flash Eurobarometer 383: Firearms in the European Union

This survey begins by examining the level of firearm ownership among European citizens. It then looks at perceptions of firearms-related crime and whether stricter regulation is the most effective way to address the problem. The role of the EU is also considered, in terms of whether common European laws might improve the control of firearms, whether the EU is the institution best placed to address firearms trafficking, and whether the EU should work with non-Member States to improve firearms control outside the EU.

The results by volumes are distributed as follows:

• Volume A: Countries
• Volume AA: Groups of countries
• Volume A' (AP): Trends
• Volume AA' (AAP): Trends of groups of countries
• Volume B: EU/socio-demographics
• Volume B' (BP) : Trends of EU/ socio-demographics
• Volume C: Country/socio-demographics
