Wyoming also is the state with the lowest population, while at the same time having a fairly large land area: Which means it's average population density is very low - which means it's people are on average further away from each other than in other states - which means it's people are less likely to be an irritant to each other than they might be in other states.

Due to the above characteristics and if one can take it's winters, Wyoming may be a great place to live in which guns are not even required "for safety".

The real trick is to reduce the U.S. gun count low enough everywhere such that irritated folks in any state can't use guns to address their irritations ... as is the case in many other countries of the world where their citizens are safe from the use of instant lethal force among themselves to settle things.

Reduce the gun count? Confiscate or voluntary turn in. Neither will work. Also do you think criminals will abide by the policy? They are already illegally possessing the weapon because they did not go through the legal process of purchasing. Instant use of lethal force? There are still knives, homemade explosives, and yes pots/pans, fist and cars. I'm not sure what the solution is to control violence in general since that's been part of human history. But I know how I'm going to minimize the risk of being a victim.
