I have long maintained that the most efficient way to control ownership of guns is to simply put on each person’s driver’s license whether or not they are entitled to own one. Would it completely solve the problem? No, but anyone caught with a gun without the appropriate license stamp goes to jail for a long time; anyone selling a gun to someone without the appropriate license stamp goes to jail for a long time. This also dispenses with the gun registration idea.
