There are many safe gun owners in the United States. I wonder though, how many murders, percentage-wise, are accomplished, with guns?

How about we check the number of gun murders from 2016?

I'd like a ballpark number, for the percentage of how many murders overall, are accomplished using guns.

Alright, so in 2016, the FBI reported there were 15,136 murders in the United States, and that firearms were used in 11,013 of those cases.  That means that of the 15,136 murders in 2016,  about 83.6% of them were done by gunshot.
