Not really. I only listed those laws that specifically refer to guns. Other laws that very much would apply are any laws that refer to the responsibility of custodial care and minor endangerment.
Voluntary buybacks have worked here and elsewhere. Do speeding penalties reduce speeding? I'm not sure what you mean by extra illegal, I'm only telling you that the thing you referred to already is illegal, that there are laws explicitly set against it, and laws that by any rational reading would apply. That there is no need to die on the second amendment hill in order to pass such laws.
Our enforcement in both cases is spotty, and we've intentional defunded the organizations that are supposed to do that job. That is a problem in a way that the 2a isn't.

How does one reduce black market gun supply? Will making penalties stiffer help... does it matter if we make something illegal extra illegal?
