like the Libertarians, they have no grasp on reality. One gets their policy ideas from Ayn Rand and the other from hippie songs. Neither of them are based on facts and evidence.

“The NRA and its Congressional and Senatorial backers (mostly all) have fought to keep such weapons in the hands of, what they determine to be, law abiding citizens,”

No, what the rule of law determines are law abiding citizens.

There is no epidemic of "gun violence". There is an epidemic of heroin overdoses.

Gun-rights groups, including the NRA, argue that restrictions on gun purchases would not improve public safety.

So do most criminologists.
