22 mass shootings. 374 dead. Where did the guns come from?

Summary by Ground News

The suspects in the shootings at a Uvalde, Texas, elementary school and a Buffalo, New York, supermarket were both just 18, authorities say. They were too young to legally purchase alcohol or cigarettes, but old enough to arm themselves with assault weapons. Some shooters got guns legally under current firearms laws, or because of background check lapses or law enforcement failure to heed warnings of concerning behaviour.
