I might be wrong.

You would NOT be wrong. Chicago and Cook County have extremely tight gun control, as least much tighter than for us in down state Illinois.
The tighter the limits up there, the higher the crime rate and shootings. I have read data indicating rural IL has far more guns per capita, than the over-regulated Chicagoland, but we have a much lower crime and gun related deaths per capita rate, or something like that. Guns don't commit crime, people do. But, you already knew that.
