病例对照研究表明，家中有枪支与自杀之间存在关联，家中有上膛枪支和手枪的自杀风险更高。准实验研究还显示，更严格的枪支管制法律与总体上更低的枪支自杀率之间存在关系，尽管一些研究未能显示出效果或显示出方法替代。一项前瞻性研究表明，手枪购买者在购买后的6年内自杀风险较高。相对较少的研究调查了鼓励家庭安全存放枪支或从家中取出枪支的干预措施对自杀结果的影响。
Case-control studies show an association between firearms in the home and completed suicide, with higher risks associated with loaded guns and handguns in the home. Quasi-experimental studies also show a relationship between greater restrictiveness of gun control laws and lower suicide rates by firearms and overall, although some studies fail to show an effect or show method substitution. A prospective study shows that handgun purchasers have an elevated risk for suicide for up to 6 years after the purchase. Relatively few studies have examined the impact of intervention to encourage families to store guns safely or remove firearms from the home on suicidal outcome.
