Gun control support climbs as anti‑gun lobby remains effective
A Harris Survey of 1,500 adults finds 80 percent favor federal registration of all handguns, up from 77 percent in 1975, with gun owners and regions showing varied levels of support. The poll notes the anti‑gun control lobby is more politically effective, influencing candidates and turnout despite broad public backing for some controls.
