A lot of Europeans are ignorant to the fact that a blanket ban would not be able to work in the US, nor is it really possible. As some others have stated, it isn't as simple as just passing a law and there you go. The right to bear arms is a right in our constitution, something that isn't changed easily. Never mind the fact that the majority of Americans wouldn't support it.
Sure you can have some restrictions on firearms, but that is mainly up to the state. My state for example is one of the more restrictive in the US simply because it is 1 of 3 states that actually require a license for one. I had to send in paperwork, wait 30 days for a background check to be done and other checks, before I was given my license. To get a conceal carry license after that, it's typically a 90 day wait currently. I'm not against restrictions by any means, as long as they're sensible and not just out of emotion. I feel like more states should require licensing and such.
The complete removal of firearms from American society will simply never happen though. There are way too many in circulation, too many criminals with them on their hands, and if you remove them from the law abiding citizens it only opens them up to be extorted by the gun wielding criminals.
