The low murder rate is culture driven, not gun control driven.

Japan has a quite bloody history ( If you watched any Samurai war movies ). It is true hunters can have a hunting gun but it is very difficult to get a permit. It has to be unloaded and locked in. If any high level dignitaries come to town, you have to bring your gun to local police station to be locked up till he/she is gone. It is not cultural but I admit, if you did not have guns for so long ( Since the end of WW2 ) it probably became cultural by now..
