65. Here's what we can do...

Improve the system of criminal background checks to include mental health issues and to forbid the practice in some states of withholding information from the national system.

Full criminal background checks for all firearms purchases -- whether at a bricks-and-mortar sporting goods store, from an individual, or at a gun show.

Ban the sale of firearms and ammunication through the internet.

Ban the manufacture and importation of rifles with a high-capacity fixed magazine or detachable magazines. Note: Ownership and sale of existing weapons is still legal (with background check).

Require owners of designated "assault rifles" to maintain liability insurance coverage for any damages that may be caused by their weapon, either through accidental discharge or criminal use.

Ban the sale, manufacture, importation, and ownership of magazines in excess of 10 rounds.

Require local law enforcement to destroy all firearms siezed at crime scenes and/or from criminals after their existence as evidence is no longer required.

Summary: Make is increasingly difficult for anyone but a law-abiding citizen to purchase or possess a firearm. While we're doing that, the idea is to "drain the swamp" and lower the overall number of firearms in circulation.
