Its disturbingly simple to acquire a firearm in the U.S.
I personally own 2 and don't do much with them but hunt and they're registered in a different state than where I live. I don't see the problem as people owning guns or even magazine sizes. The problem is the culture surrounding guns and their easy access.
Similar to a drivers license, you should be able to demonstrate safety with a firearm before being able to buy one.
Even with stricter gun laws, people will still find a way to get guns. However, reducing the number of gun ownership with stricter laws will limit the amount of guns that could be stolen or misused.
Running psychiatric evaluation would be a step in the right direction.
