Are there any examples of countries that found a stable place within that canyon?

Switzerland comes to mind. Very high gun ownership rate, much lower gun violence/death rate.

Edit: One might also point to the UK, Canada, and Australia, but that wouldn’t be a fair comparison due to how heavily firearms are restricted in those countries.

Oh don't point out Switzerland gun control advocates hate it when you point out Switzerland. Because Switzerland shows that it is not the guns themselves but it is a cultural problem.

It is much easier to blame the guns than it is to put the problem right where it lies in a divisive media egged on by politicians that is stoking cultural problems. All for them to retain their seats of power.
