Persons under certain domestic violence restraining orders are prohibited by federal law from purchasing and possessing a firearm. We used administrative data from California to link 794426 restraining orders with 1388724 handgun purchase applications. We found that restrained persons were not a less law-abiding group in general, but they appeared to be repeatedly or serially abusive to intimate partners, and their handgun purchase rates were highest after their restraining orders expired.
根据联邦法律，受到某些家庭暴力限制令约束的人被禁止购买和持有枪支。我们利用加利福尼亚州的行政数据，将794426份限制令与1388724份手枪购买申请进行了关联。我们发现，受到限制令约束的人总体上并非守法程度较低的群体，但他们似乎对亲密伴侣存在反复或连续的虐待行为，而且他们的手枪购买率在限制令到期后最高。
