We've been telling you this for years. 80% of criminals have illegal guns before committing their crimes.

Universal background checks are NOT going to keep guns out of the hands of criminals, but they are going to leave a paper trail that some future congress could mine to find out what guns are owned by which people, an impossibility at this point, but a dream of the gun control crowd.

New evidence confirms what gun rights advocates have said for a long time about crime (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2016/07/27/new-evidence-confirms-what-gun-rights-advocates-have-been-saying-for-a-long-time-about-crime/)
 
The scary front page pictures don't match reality. The vast population of America will never see guns like these up close used in a crime. Most street criminals are young and use 22, 380, 9mm or some sort of revolver.

Victims of gun crimes are chosen because they don't appear able to resist. The gun is probably not even needed just to make the jackoff feel superior (I love stories of thieves using a gun to rob a woman. Seriously. You chose a woman and still needed a gun? What gang needed you?). How likely is an AK going to be used to snatch a purse or do any strong armed offense on the street?

Addressing the article you linked.
Nothing new here, just another hit piece advocating for more gun control. I'll give you that he did start out telling us what we do know already, but it reveals itself pretty quickly; links to anti-gun organizations like LCPGV, Everytown, armed with reason, a video about how Australia "stopped mass shootings, murder, suicide and violence in general" by banning guns, hinting that we should spend our tax dollars on letting the anti's research "gun violence" and stories about how evil guns are.

This writer is trying to trick us into allowing gun registration and the you must report your guns being stolen within 24 hours BS.

F this guy and the horse he rode in on!

As for the research,
It looks like the guy is advocating "safe storage" laws.
Both raise the issue of increasing public knowledge regarding safe storage of firearms and injury prevention as a method of reducing access to firearms where feasible.
and pandering for the govt to collect data on guns
This study offers a timely opportunity to encourage ongoing, systematic
collaboration between public health and law enforcement with the purpose of describing,
understanding and reducing violent crime (particularly violent death) as well as reducing the
difficulty in data collection for firearms.
Future studies should be conducted to assess the pathway in which firearms travel from legal ownership to illegal ownership, as well as to investigate ways of incorporating or linking this type of data into currently existing public health surveillance around violence.
