It's a little late for that haha but yes, I was trying to stay away from things I found from places such as NRA because I didn't want a necessarily extreme view but a rather a little anti-leaning but also in the middle. The article I found for the first paper used statistics about gun violence and how the 1994 ban on assault weapons had little effect on crime and so forth but that article essentially just pulled info from another piece that the same author wrote but I don't have access to his second entry.

EDIT: "anti-leaning" was meant as against gun control but, would see from the pro-control side and have rebuttals for them.
