This is an outright false statement. Many legislators and many activist are in favor of an outright ban. Most know this is anon-starter. They rely on the "death of a 1000 cuts" method instead, where insignificant features are banned or restricted because "nobody cares". In my state, buying a handgun requires a 7 day waiting period. And taking an expensive and time consuming course to obtain an HQL - Handgun Qualifying License. And a background check. And the handgun has to be approved by name on a roster by the legislature.
