Because it’s just a bad idea.

Most of the world doesn’t need that whole setup because:

- Our cultural baseline around firearms is completely different. Countries like Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Switzerland, Austria, and the Czech Republic have plenty of guns at home - and historically, a lot of them were actual assault rifles, not “looks-spicy” semiautos.

- We treat guns like weapons. They live in safes, not nightstands, and kids get taught safety early, the same way you’d teach them not to put a fork in a power supply.

> Countries like Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Switzerland, Austria, and the Czech Republic have plenty of guns at home

None of those countries are anywhere near US levels of gun ownership. See the table here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estimated_number_of_civilian_g...

USA has 120 guns pr 100 citizens. Of the countries on your list, Finland is next with 32. Denmark has 10.

> and historically, a lot of them were actual assault rifles

Fully automatic weapons are not legal for civilians in Denmark at least.

Many semiautos are also banned. Semiauto shotguns must be restricted to hold only two shells and you need a special license even for that.

I don’t disagree with your general point, but you’re not making a good comparison IMO.

The Swiss do have a lot of guns at home. However, you cannot carry (or even transport guns that are not discharged). Just take them at a shooting range - a popular pastime for Swiss people.
