"Quit making them and handing them out like candy".
Clearly the absolutely most ignorant and unrealistic plea I' ve ever heard.
Tell us how you would accomplish this Brian?
And while doing so - you don't get to cancel basic economics.
If you were able SOMEHOW to stay within the free market system - and limit the number of guns a manufacturer built - prices would be driven up by demand. When the prices rise enough - new manufacturers will arise and attempt to cash in on the high prices. This will end up causing oversaturation of the market and make guns cheaper and more available.
Need proof?
Look at Harley Davidson. Back in the 1990' s they cut back production to inflate their prices. Within 5 years all the Japanese companies were offering Harley lookalikes and new manufacturers got in the game - Polaris Victory, Indian, Boss Hoss, ECT ECT... Prices on Harleys are now way down.
What magic have you got to defeat economics 101?
