Fuck it, offer a $50,000,000 winner-take-all prize at tax-payer expense, and let the confirmed gun nuts sign up to hunt each other to the last man (felons who have been convicted of crimes involving firearms and gang bangers can be rounded up and made to compete). Hold the event somewhere in the SW desert region of the U.S. (no food, water, or supplies other than whatever personal arsenal and ammunition each contestant can carry) and put the whole thing on pay-per-view, which would easily more than cover the upfront cost to the citizens. Melt down every weapon recovered, award the winner his oversized check on a pedestal on live TV, and then put one in his head a minute after the cameras are off.
It won't solve the problem, but it would get some weapons off the streets, and it would be a hell of a lot more entertaining than everything else we are paying for through the cable providers.
Other than that, I suppose we could shoot for a constitutional amendment, but I seriously think my proposal has more chance of happening in my lifetime. 'Cause 'Murica!
More seriously, I think a switch to "smart guns" is the way to go, but I'm damned if I know how the transition is going to work.
