Sounds fair to me. I don’t think I’ve ever promoted legislation targeting people who are responsible about their guns.

Sure you have. We will give you benefit of the doubt and assume you didn't realize it.
ALL current gun laws target the LEGAL buyers of firearms. Who buys guns legally? The law abiding.
What good do waiting periods do for someone who plans to use that gun in a legal manner? None.
....
I have put this forward many times.
1. Require identification for ALL firearm sales - through FFL dealers and private individuals.
2. Make all problem children - i.e. - anyone who has been stripped of their rights to own a firearm to have a "NO GUNS" flag on their I.D..
3. Make it a class 1 felony to sell a firearm to the problem children.
There you have legislation aimed at the problem - not the law abiding.
They'll never go for it of course - because everyone knows that owning a firearm will turn you into a murderous asshat.
