ONE LESS GUN IS A SIMPLE STORY.

ONE LESS GUN IS SIMPLY DEDICATED TO REDUCING THEIR NUMBER AND PROMOTING A SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY TO THIS FACT.

Our goal is to destroy surplus and illicit weaponry and promote social responsibility to this end.

It is not about whether you like guns or dislike guns, it’s about the simple fact that a 1,000 people a day are dying as a result of them.

Guns are a part of popular culture, integral to many of our favourite games and films are in all likelihood to remain so for many generations to come.
