Until (if) that gun is used to commit a crime, why does it matter? And when (if) it is used to commit a crime, then the person using it is the one that deserves punishment.

If all it's ever used for is to shoot paper targets and squirrels, it's none of their business.

I see a gun as having a connotation to it that other potential weapons
don't have. A knife, a bow and arrow or club doesn't have the same
reputation that a gun has. Doesn't mean they are used exclusively for
killing but basically, that's what they are for, be it a squirrel or a
person. For that reason I feel they should have more attention paid to
who can buy or acquire one.

That's in your mind. One of my friends was a Marine sniper. He doesn't own a gun now. Has knives hidden in every room of the house. You don't want to break in to his house.

A bow and arrow is nothing but a killing machine. It's just not glorified by our media like guns are. Except for Walking Dead. That crossbow is just nasty!

The rulers have always tried to have arms control laws. Hitler even
bragged his was the first truly disarmed country. Go back to the Middle
Ages. Crossbows were banned from the peons. Because a crossbow bolt could
penetrate armor. Old England required the lords and barons, etc. to be
able to supply armed men to the king. Did not require the man to be armed
when not being conscripted.
