From the same wiki page.

So what made Gary Kleck's National Self-Defense Survey fact but not David Hemenway's from Harvard??
Because I had a few windows open and cut and pasted the wrong thing ;). Why not go with David Hemenway's? Because more surveys show David to be wrong and Kleck to be right.

Quote:
Hemenway's own surveys confirmed Kleck's conclusion that defensive gun uses number at least in the hundreds of thousands each year, and that a far larger number of surveys (at least 20) have shown that defensive uses outnumbered criminal uses
