I’m not sure what you are trying to say. Halachically there is no issue with owning a gun nor with defending your life with one. The idea that you can make all the guns in the US disappear and we are suddenly all safe is an obvious pipe dream.
In addition you will notice I didn’t argue any specific gun control proposal. Mostly bc as has been pointed out they are mostly foolish to those of us who know guns.
Example :assault rifles. The term is a cosmetic one that doesn’t address the lethality of the weapon. There are numerous weapons of the same caliber that don’t fall under the label and are just as lethal.
In fact all you have to do to turn an assault rifle into a legal semi auto rifle is to cut off the part of the pistol grip that protrudes past the trigger housing.
And many similar type bypasses are available at every gun store in restrictive states.
