I know what you're looking for but I still believe any reasonable new laws would be easily circumvented and just so much TP in the end.
I read a letter to the editor today and someone's great solution was to require gun owners to belong to a well regulated militia. Fine, I'll start one up then.

Hmmm, valid point, registration would probably just be another added layer of bureaucracy. It is a difficult balance to get a system that's streamlined enough to work but expansive enough to avoid loopholes.
A question though, why is there so much secrecy when in regards to what the government knows what you own in regards to firearms. Generally speaking when someone breaks into your home they're not from the government and if the government wanted to act against its populace we are in a position now where a simple firearm will not protect you against a tyrannical government. Especially not one as well equipped and technologically advanced as the United States. So really the firearms primary objective in modern America is personal safety and protection, against both other Americans and in the very unlikely event that the US is ever invaded.
Ha, the well organised militia, well I guess that's one solution...although to be honest if you replaced that with gun club then that's something, I mean your average gun club is going to teach you proper gun use, maintenance and safety. Plus in an invasion scenario they can double up as militias.
