It is decades of not centuries too late to rebottle that particular genie, plus there are valid use cases.
What we do need is actual firm regulation and enforcement across the board. None of this "gunshow loophole" nonsense, no more of having them be less regulated than a fucking car. You have a tool that can kill people, with no particular use besides harming life or threatening to harm life. It needs to be handled with respect and care for that eventuality.
"Oh they stole it" criminal negligence on the part of the people who originally had it. Do better. And the only way we can do better is to enforce the rules.
"But I just want to collect guns!" then do the goddamn paperwork like an adult. Damn.
