13. First we need a funded ATF
It's the most underfunded agency in the government.

Then, let's make everybody follow the same rules to possess a handgun or semi-auto that we do to conceal a weapon. Be 21 years of age, complete an approved firearms safety or training course,
fill out the application form at your local sheriff's office with two forms of identification, have a firearms training certificate, give fingerprints and photos, pass the backgrund check, renew it every 4 years. Make similar hunter's safety courses required for rifles, shotguns, etc.

We need bullet tracing, and we need to track the sale of all guns.

Outlaw armor piercing bullets.

I would probably prefer a clip with 5 or less bullets.

And I would prefer that any gun that gives some teen-ager the idea that they're Rambo would not be made to the general public. Make it tougher to get them, like it is to get a machine gun or rocket launcher.
