I can say with absolute certainty as a person who used to try and get people to shoot their guns at people..that this is among the least likely outcomes of a ban or confiscation attempt. They would almost certainly seek to evade any such law or attempt by every other imaginable (and much easier) way to -avoid- shooting at people.
I wouldn't..because that would certainly end in my death and the confiscation of my guns from my cold dead hands. They just wouldn't find any guns when they came knocking. You shoot em in the back, when they're not looking, not in the front when they come a callin.
Totally agree with your last sentence. Everyone does, who has spent more than half of a second thinking about it. No one is going to go toe to toe with the US military. But an insurrection is nevertheless likely.
