If someone wants to illegally get a firearm, they're going to do it no matter what the law says. That's been proven time and time again.
What you are proposing is nothing more than trying to appease emotions...
As for the number of guns someone owns...how many cars, or pens, or anything do you own? I personally own the multiples of same gun in multiple different configurations.
Here in PA, all handgun sales go through an FFL person, it's called a transfer. They don't track registrations, as it's against the law here...However, they track the transfer. Also, some rifles must go through an FFL dealer for transfer as well. Again...they don't require registration.

you completely missed my point. The point was, a good safe is often around the value of a decent gun. Many gun owners own multiple guns, many even double digit guns. You are telling me they can't hold off on one of these toys to buy a safe for about the same money? Its really that big an imposition on you when you are going to turn right around and buy a new 600 dollar firearm to add to you collection next time you have the cash?
Again, the idea of owning a safe is so mild and makes such decent sense that it simply boggles the mind that so many gun owners who call themselves responsible have such a problem with it.
