Home made firearms are a lot easier to make than you think. I don't know what makes you think they are difficult to make, they are actually a very simple machines. But the idea that you would even have to bother to make homemade firearms is rediculous. There are plenty out there already, even if they are illegal there is nothing stopping dishonest people from obtaining them in illegal ways.

I say again, do you think as many people would have died at VT if that guy had attacked with a kitchen knife instead of a gun?

Of course not! A kitchen knife is a pretty pathetic excuse for a improvised weapon. You don't honestly think the guys second choice would have been a kitchen knife do you? Actually, had he really known anything he might have managed to take out a lot more people than he did. There are plenty of ways to hurt a lot of people without guns or kitchen kifes. Wars did not begin with the invention of the gun.
