Americans and Swiss citizens have some of the highest rates of gun ownership in the world, but their gun cultures differ wildly.

To understand why there’s such a stark difference between these two countries’ gun cultures, we traveled to Switzerland to see how each of these cultures started, and where they began to part ways.
