This is something I don't see with US gun laws.
I'm not sure you understand, then, the legalities of gun ownership here. There are restrictions on gun ownership based on criminal record, for instance.
No right granted us by the Constitution is untrammelled; this one is no exception. I can't simply walk into a store, buy a .357, and walk out. It doesn't work that way.
