Australia is a good example. Everyone thinks they banned guns outright but they still have a lot of guns(lower rate, more guns). Just not the kind Rambo would have. Implemented strict registration, licensing, rules, etc. and the violence dropped. No mass shootings in almost 30 years. It just works.
