Free Shotguns For Tucson Arizona

A group known as The Armed Citizen Project has a new idea for how to deal with Tucson, Arizona's rising crime rates.

They have initiated a plan to give residents free shotguns.

Armed Citizen Project will then track crime rates in the city, to see if rates go down due to the increased ability of the public to defend itself.

So far, enough money for thirty-six single shot shotguns has been raised.

Single shot shotguns were chosen as they're decent defensive weapons, yet criminals are unlikely to steal them, due to their limited round capacity and size.

The guns will be supplied by Black Weapons Armory, who will also be handling the back ground checks.
