Sure, it might have made an impact in other countries, but there are over 300 million guns in the US. That’s almost 1 gun per living human in the country. In the event of a firearms ban those guns don’t just go away, they go underground. The black market for firearms in an America where guns are outlawed would be massive and easily accessible, so I think the mass shooting angle of this argument is actually pretty irrelevant.
