I don't think so.
Note: by "banning", I don't understand that to mean a complete 100% ban on any and all types of gun ownership.
Private guns aren't illegal across the board in Belgium for example. Instead, they are just
heavily regulated. Licensing is extremely strict and there are very strict rules also concerning registration, use, storage,...
The main problem is that the US treats it like a commodity with barely any regulation, and the little regulation there is, is
easily bypassed.
When you have more private guns then citizens, it should be no surprise that it's as easy to obtain them illegally as it is for minors to get their hands on a beer....
What I also find to be extremely disturbing is to see citizens in the US simply carry their guns out in public.
I mean, look at this:

No, these are not army people or officers of any kind. These are just "citizens". Walking around like that.
