Serious question: in the scenario you're suggesting, what would make guns different from other illegal weapons that we don't live in fear of tons of criminals having right now?

I can think of a few ideas but I'd like to hear what you're actually thinking since this is one of the typical lines said in a gun control argument but it's rarely followed up on.

I don't even know what you're asking tbh. In what scenario that ayrt doesn't appear to be suggesting are guns different from other weapons that people aren't using to shoot up schools? What?

The scenario they're suggesting is that if we ban guns then only criminals will have guns because they don't follow laws anyway and presumably people will be in more danger because of that. But right now we don't worry about weapons that are already illegal only being in the hands of criminals. What makes handguns different? Does that make more sense or did I just repeat what I said before without clearing anything up?

I do think there are some reasonable answers here (and reasonable counterarguments to those and then to those and so on) but I rarely hear people actually explaining the details of this argument so I'm curious to hear from someone else.
