42. You are missing a few facts in your analogy.
Gun ownership and licensing is already like a driver's license.

Fact: As long as the motor vehicle stays on private property, you can drive it without a license. The vehicle does not have to be registered or safety inspected. Often a ranch or farm will have a work truck that stays on the property.

Fact: You need a diver's license if you want to drive on PUBLIC roads.

Same with guns. If the gun stays on private property, no license is needed. Going hunting - you need a hunting license. Going to carry concealed - you need a CCW. To get a CCW, one has to take classes, pass a shooting test, and a genuine FBI background, and wait a couple of months for all of that to be done.
