I understand that Australia didn't try too hard to confiscate the guns. 1/3 of them are still out there and people can still get hunting permits and other types of circumstantial permits. I'm not supporting a total ban like this but just pointing out that you are probably wrong. Plus the whole gun grab thing is overblown. F
Very few are advocating for full bans and confiscation. The right doesnt believe it and makes up a narrative that all the left wants to ban and confiscate so the people can be oppressed...they dislike reality a lot.

You can make what ever excuses you want but it is: forced gun confiscation


Gun confiscation is not happening in the United States any time soon. But let’s suppose it did. How would it work? Australia’s program netted, at the low end, 650,000 guns, and at the high end, a million. That was approximately a fifth to a third of Australian firearms. There are about as many guns in America as there are people: 310 million of both in 2009. A fifth to a third would be between 60 and 105 million guns. To achieve in America what was done in Australia, in other words, the government would have to confiscate as many as 105 million firearms.

The Australia Gun Control Fallacy

And considering the fact that some of the guns used in crime came from California goes to show you more federal gun control wont work in stopping gun crime. California has among the strictest gun control in the country and the criminals were still able to get guns in California. So even if we had federal gun control that was equivalent to the gun control in California it would not work in stopping gun crime.
