In the first two years after the gun ban, they confiscated around 650,000 guns. We have around 300-350,000,000 guns in our country. That's millions with an M.

Unfortunately, the US is hampered by Conservatives who simply want to obstruct, and have no rational reason why they oppose this President on gun restrictions.
"HOME invasions have swept Sydney with crooks "storming " into houses in the latest crime fad to hit our streets.
"From Point Piper to Penrith the victims range from millionaires to housing commission tenants.

Yeah that pesky Constitution! Nothing but an outdated rag, eh Lexus? I have a better idea, how about you and Dear Leader that you blindly swoon over like some sort of god pack your things and move to Australia, and stop trying to p*** on the Constitution, and restricting the rights of American citizens?
I think no other state in the Northeast or Mid-Atlantic has a stronger "gun culture" and respect for the 2nd Amendment than my home state of Pennsylvania. We have a long tradition of hunting, and there are dozens of public gamelands.
I know of only a few people who want to abolish the 2nd Amendment entirely, but I do see a groundswell of public opinion to close all the loopholes as far purchasing a firearm. Gun sales by non-authorized sellers or failure to abide by restrictions on the seller is an issue. A lot of folks want guns not readily available to criminals, terrorists, non-citizens, or the insane.
If some sort of reasonable condition isn't implemented on the sale of weapons and ammo, there may very well be a movement to repeal the 2nd Amendment.
