I find handguns to have a longer learning curve, but that's just me.

We just go outside and shoot hay as targets.

Pop fine. Just prepare for continued easy access...sm - VTMT

by absolutely anyone and everyone, resulting in more mass murders. Those on the No-fly list, the terrorism watch list, the mentally ill, etc. 90% of Americans believe there should be some restrictions and better background checks.

^^No idea where the "Pop" came from?^^ nm - VTMT

Great point! But you're talking about a different issue - sm

The only way "absolutely anyone and everyone" is buying a gun now is the laws restricting purchase are not being followed. The databases you propose adding more information to are out of date and not working. Fix that problem and you'll get somewhere. Too bad updating a federal database is not a headline grabber.

"90% of Americans believe there should be some restrictions and better background checks."

And they would be right. The difference is those restrictions and background checks would keep dangerous people from buying A GUN, any gun. Banning one style of gun is misguided because that dangerous person can go ahead and buy a different gun that isn't banned, but just as deadly.

They banned assault weapons in the 90s. It made no difference in mass shootings.

The databases are also erroneous in many instances. - sm
