> If nobody had guns from whom would the outlaw purchase(or steal) them from? Nobody? Not police? Not govt? How about folks who know how to use machine tool

  Yep, people who are rooting for gun ban fail to realize that M1911 was designed and developed 100 years ago and it basically remains as modern as the rest of the modern handguns are. Sure there have been some improvements in manufacturing technology and material science since then that make it possible to manufacture a gun like that in any decent machine shop.

    Ammunition is actually the limiting factor. Primers, especially, are difficult to produce even vaguely safely in anything less than a $50mm+ plant. Whereas I could easily make an automatic short barreled rifle using just equipment at many hackerspaces or machine shops.
