"This is unacceptable, we need to do something" will be the refrain after any mass murder. If you give all the background checks, and all the modification requirements, and whatever else you want, there will still be a mass murder, and the response will never be "This is acceptable, nothing we can do."
The NRA is smart enough to recognize this. It's not a battle over gun rights, it's a war. If it were an issue of background checks, and that was going to end the debate, I'd bet the NRA would happily concede the point. But that's not how it will work. Because every event will result in another call to do something forever until guns are illegal.
