...neither political party can be trusted to respect our rights

And no influential Senator or Congressman wants to hoist themselves onto the spit to lead the charge to fix things. Can you imagine the political fallout for a Senator who demanded to repeal GCA68 and NFA?

The problem is there is not a conservative party.

The Democratic party has drifted into the radical left and nearly every member of that party fits the description.

The Republican party is composed of some radical leftists, some liberals, a lot of moderates and a very few conservatives.

There are no hard core conservatives that I am aware of in the Republican party.
