CI=3.4 to 6.1) from a rural setting (X 2 (1)=153.5, p≤.0001, OR=4.4, 95%CI=3.2 to 5.6) and agri-employed (X 2 (1)=21.3, p≤.0001, OR=1.5, 95% CI=1.3 to 1.8). FAS victims were also significantly younger than n-FAS victims, although the size of this effect was small (z=-8.4, p<.0005, r=-.1). There was no difference in marital status across the two groups. Conclusions:Risk factors for firearm suicide should inform policy making in this area, with particular attention paid to protecting young males resident in rural settings.Consideration should be given to targeting agri-employed individuals as one specific at-risk group.
