Or you do a gun buyback program like Australia did. Then make firearms illegal without a license and a reason.
Then, like all other first world countries, you literally see murder plummeting.
Australia has around 1mil firearms in private hands...had a 60% turn in rate, and never had the murder rate we do anyways. If 60% of the USA turned in the firearms, you'd be left with over 100 million still out there.
Murder rates have been dropping in the US for decades, mass shootings are a small but high profile problem
