I believe you have overestimated the percentage of guns used in murders because you did not account for all the times one gun is used to shoot two, three, or more people.

While this is a valid point on statistical analysis, I will add (with my tongue firmly iin my cheek) that we all know mass murders are the most common thing going on these days because the media tells us this. So it must be an order of magnitude off based on that.
