Nearly 75 percent of guns used to commit crimes and recovered by New York State law enforcement come from out of state, according to a new report by the state’s attorney general’s office.
The study, released Tuesday, also found that close to 90 percent of all handguns used in crimes and recovered in New York the weapon of choice for violent criminals originate in other states, Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman’s office said in a Tuesday news release.
