Well, they are starting to. One need look no further than London for an example. But you are correct, no other country has made gun ownership a right and guns are not readily available on most other, similar, countries.

Yes, it is hard to use something you can't acquire.

Sure you have, it's because guns are readily available here. This is not going to change, ever, without a complete collapse of the current system of government. Seeing as how that is something you cannot control, or cease, you'd do better looking at other areas where action would actually produce results.
