71. car registration

Is a good model:

1 - Register guns.
2- If you use the gun, you must have a copy of the registration with you.
3 - License the gun owner and test on the gun range along with an exam. Gun owner must pass a marksmanship exam that includes a barrier of two shots to hit a target - IOW, if you can't aim the thing and hit a target in two shots, you have no business owning a gun. And require retesting ever three years.

I think that all auto and semi auto fire guns should be banned. I used to hunt, and I used a bolt action rifle. It used to be a badge of honor and a verification of your skills to be able to hit your target with a single shot. Now these gun nuts want 30 round magazines and guns that spray lead, because they can't aim and control their weapon. They claim that a 30 round mag is needed for home defense, but that's BS. a 16 gauge pump action shotgun does a much better job - the shot doesn't go through walls, you have a much better chance of hitting your target, and they make a hell of a noise when fired.

Trust me, I doubt any of these gun nuts could survive using colonial era black powder muzzle loaders, but that is what the founders of this country used, and they managed to feed themselves with their guns, as well as defend their property. You had to make your own cartridges (roll the powder into a paper cylinder) and make your own lead shot. If it was good enough for George Washington, then it should be good enough for them.
