72% of gun owners in U.S. say they own guns for personal protection; 81% say owning a gun helps them feel safer.
Psychologists say gun owners aren't just protecting against physical threats, they're also using a gun to protect their psychological selves.
Owners may end up perceiving the world as a more dangerous place, institutions as more uncaring or incompetent.
In one study, 97% of owners reported that they were "more responsible than the average gun owner" We are in the process of interviewing gun owners from all around the state of Wisconsin .
We hope to learn more about the many different ways that people conceptualize what a gun can do for them.
American gun cultures are complex and distinct things.
