The criminals already have the guns, thats the issue.
Stopping ammo sales may help, but there's many thousands of manual ammo reloaders out there. You'd have to stop manufacture of gunpowder too. It would make it harder though.
None of this will happen ever so its pointless to argue
Again, delusional. Convicts are consistently some of the least well-armed portions of the population, precisely because we have gun control laws that still specifically target them.
OK so no crimes are commtted by criminals because criminals dont have guns? This doesn't seem right.
Either way, people are not going to be left defenseless unless by force of government.
I like the ammo limiting idea for the most part though.
Even if you give regular folks more guns, it makes everyone less safe. The criminals don't care what the law is and will always have guns, those European counties are no exception.
