322. Some states keep annual statistics.

Here are the stats for Texas: http://www.txdps.state.tx.us/rsd/chl/reports/convrates.htm

As you can see, those with CHLs (Concealed Handgun License) have far lower conviction rates than the general public.

At the end of 2011 (2012 stats won't be out until June) there were 525,000+ people with CHLs and only six convictions (an all time high) for (3)murder/(3)manslaughter vs 573 from the general population. Population of the state is about 26 million. As a percentage of conviction CHLers account for less than one percent (.65%) of murder convictions, and 2.7% of manslaughter convictions.

2011 is an outlier for manslaughter convictions. Most years there are only 0 or 1 CHL convictions for manslaugher.

You can browse the records for all types of violent convictions for all years for yourself.

Those of us who have CHLs are proven to be the safest people you can be around regarding guns. And occasionally, we stop a crime.
