They're already "harder to get". In fact, assault weapons -- that is, weapons that one would use to assault a position -- have been prohibited to civilians in the US since 1968. Exceptions require a Class 1 or 2 (dealer) license or Class 3 (Curios & Relics) license from the BATF and even then there are restrictions. I leave it to the reader to read up on the various federal firearms licenses.

None of the perpetrators of the high profile shootings in recent memory were so licensed by the BATF.

But why let the truth get in the way of hype and ratings, eh?
