Get enough people that feel the same way to come together in a coherent group that can wield comparable electoral influence as the NRA, for a start. That’s the absolute minimum you’ll need to get legislation enacted, and you’ll still run into Constitutional issues.
For anything resembling a complete ban, you’ll need to rewrite the second amendment which is an awfully high bar. The exact language change will be incredibly controversial in any case, but it’s one of the more vague amendments because it includes a rationale in addition to the right being protected. If you’re willing to compromise some, there may be room for clarifying the scope of the right to bear arms without removing it completely.
