There are literally millions of weapons in circulation right now in the U.S. A vast number of them aren't registered and already in criminal hands. If they change the gun laws tomorrow, will all the criminals that illegally own guns turn them in? I don't think so, and with the make-believe border we have with Mexico, that means guns can come and go as they please. And in some cases, if you're in a ruthless cartel, the POTUS and Attorney General will provide them to you.
In other words, criminals will always have guns. ALWAYS. This isn't the UK or Australia, we're not an island. If I was hellbent on breaking the law, and even if the U.S. passes the most Draconian laws in all the land, I'll still be able to get one. Easily. And that's the point most people against gun control are trying to argue. Yeah, Liberals and the media paint the picture that everyone that owns a gun or against gun control are right wing lunatic nut jobs with a basement full of assault rifles and ammo wearing camouflage pants. That's about the furthest from the truth, but since the media paints that picture for the sheep, they follow it without question.
Address other underlying issues rather than trying to rewrite the Constitution. Guns don't kill people, crazy people with guns kill people. Can't say that enough.
