I don't think there are any partcularly strong reasons for any of the names, and they seem to be randomly chosen. I think it would be good to standardise on a common name, which in my opinion should be "Gun control in X". [[User:Elshad|Elshad]] ([[User talk:Elshad|talk]]) 22:05, 17 December 2025 (UTC)

:The issue with using "Gun control" is that many regulations have nothing to do with "control". California's Prop 65 is a prime example -- it's an environmental/health regulation, that acts as a regulation on firearms and ammunition but is not specifically intended for gun control. "Gun laws in" or "Firearms regulation in" are both better terms, with the former being more [[WP:CONCISE]] and the latter being more [[WP:PRECISE]] as regulations are not necessarily laws (and in the US, many of the most noticeable ones are not, but are rather administrative regulations). I'd support either one, but prefer "Gun laws in" as being more accessible and concise. [[User:Swatjester|]][[User_talk:Swatjester|SWATJester]] Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat! 02:33, 17 February 2026 (UTC)
