How do Nevada gun laws compare to those in California?
The tragedy in Las Vegas is guaranteed to reignite the national debate over gun laws, including here in California.

LAS VEGAS (KGO) -- On Sunday night, rapid-fire gunshots rang out during a Las Vegas concert, leaving 59 victims dead and more than 500 wounded in what has become the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history. The tragedy is guaranteed to reignite the national debate over gun laws, including here in California.

And, despite sharing a 700-mile border, California and Nevada are far apart when it comes to gun laws. California has some of the strictest in the country, while Nevada has some of the most relaxed.

Watch the video in the player above to see how the states compare.
