On the other hand, If I'd attempt a suicide and have this choice I'd choose firearm by a large margin. It's a humane way to die, as opposed to e.g. hanging. Just imagine it: Somebody living a miserable life and even dying painful and miserable death.

Interestingly enough, I'm known for being very "pro gun" and I do own a firearm. But if I ever chose suicide, I can't imagine shooting myself. It's hard to say why, but it doesn't seem like the path I'd go. I would lean more towards poison, or driving my car into a concrete embankment going 100+. Probably poison though, or a slow "drink myself to death" ending, ala Leaving Las Vegas. :-)
