To better understand the underground market, including how dangerous individuals access guns and ammunition and the considerations influencing the illegal buying and selling of guns, we are conducting 250 in-depth interviews with Chicago-based gun offenders in Illinois prisons. We examine how gang-involved (and non-gang) individuals acquire, manage, store and dispose of illegal guns, and explore trafficking patterns among those deeply involved in gangs to shed light on potential opportunities for enforcement.
