Rocket-Propelled Grenade Launcher Found in Car in California
San Bernardino County Sheriff’s deputies found a rocket-propelled grenade launcher in a car Christmas morning when they responded to a call for a single vehicle accident.
... the car is registered to 28-year-old Jesus Rodriquez, a Colton resident who is “on parole for assault with an automatic weapon.”
Bans only affect those who would abide by such laws. There's no enforcement capability, and if you can't enforce a law, it only affects those who would voluntarily abide by it.
This guy was already on parole for assault with a machine gun, which have been effectively banned since the 1930s. He chose not to obey that law, and there's no mechanism through which that ban could be enforced against this person.
Gun Bans don't work (unless you are talking about zero tolerance gun seizeures, Australia/UK style, which isn't likely to happen in our lifetimes).
Butthreats of gun bans do charge up a significant chunk of the Democrats' base.
It remains to be seen whether Biden's threats will amount to much more than lip service or more widely acceptable restrictions like Trump's ban on bump stocks.
Most gun restrictions are enacted at the state and even municipal level, though, not federal. So pay attention to your state elections if you want to preserve your rights.

And likely make a significant difference to the gun industry's bottom line.
Kinda makes me wonder who floats all the rumors of 'gun grabs' etc.
Maybe because imperfect laws are an INFRINGEMENT???
I guess speed limits are also an infringement and also imperfect.
