I think locals should be able to ban guns in the public space but if they do then it should apply to law enforcement as well with an exception for a special unit that responds to people breaking the ban. I do think people should be able to have what they want on their property but travel restrictions like no bullets in guns or clips ; bullets, clips, and guns all have to be in separate locked containers that meet a specific spec possibly with trigger locks on the guns as well. There is just a difference between a large city and way out in the country.
That's already what happens though. Different municipalities do restrict different firearms. ARs and various other semi automatics were banned in and around Chicago long before they banned them statewide. In Illinois you also aren't allowed to transport a loaded weapon unless you have a concealed carry permit and it's a concealed pistol (at least last I looked, I moved away years ago). I'm sure other places have similar restrictions.
Courts overturned the handgun law im not sure where the AR sits but unfortunately we have not been consistent to allow localities to decide these things. Its funny to me because I always think about the quintessential western thing where when coming to town the sheriff says the firearm is not allowed and they will have to give it to him till they leave town again.
I wonder how true that was or if it was pure Hollywood.
It feels sensible enough to be true but I feel like the most pro gun folks tend to also romanticize the old west which is why it nags at me.
