1. I think it would take 5-10 years till 90% of all guns were destroyed hehe.
2. We all know ther would be less shootings.

People would still go nuts from time to time and even kill others with a car, tank, plane, knife or whatever. But overall ther would be less deaths thats for sure.

Ask some people "if you would have to kill someone, which weapon would you choise? a knife, a hammer or a gun?" We all know that most of us would choise a gun. Its fast, its easy, its "clean".
Most shootings in America take place in large cities that have gun bans. Just something to think about.

Only 3% of shootings are commited with a legally owned fire-arm
Only current issue i could possibly see with USA firearm laws right now is issues with legal arms being sold through the black market, otherwise theres no real arguement. Criminals will be criminals, if a teen in Germany can obtain guns in an area where they are pretty much banned, i dont see how it would be different anywhere else

It cost them time to get a gun, and each min/hour/day/week it takes them longer to obtain a gun, the higher the chance that they will calm down and dont buy a gun at all.

How many shootings been in the world already because they happend "impulsive" (not planned) ?

Did anyone see recently where a (((journalist))) tried to buy a gun (AR-15) I think trying to show how easy it is to get one? He was refused because of a domestic violence charge on his record. Its a myth that only felons cannot posses a gun. Due to a bill from the 90s misdemeanor domestic violence will cause you to be forbidden from owning or purchasing a gun.

He thinks its a conspiracy not to sell to reporters btw. You cant make this shit up.

ETA: They also denied him for having a history of alcohol abuse DOMO.

The longer they have to wait to get their gun, maybe instead of calming down they get more agitated and instead resort to filling a pressure cooker full of nails and ball bearings. The fact is, if someone is determined to cause harm, they'll see it through no matter how long it takes. They'll find a way.

Also, while it is more difficult to kill someone with a knife than a firearm, it is just as easy to maim and the assault itself is more gruesome. Being decapitated or attacked with a saw is worse than being shot imo. Not that I would like to die either way, or at all for that matter.

Well, as much I like this debate here right now, at the end we just have diffrent opinions on this topic.

If america wants to keep ther weapons even though statistic shows that with good gun laws ther are less killings, than its fine with me.
Thats a topic america have to slove on ther own.
