Points I am seeing raised:

  1. If outlawed guns will be available through the black market anyway. But now they will be unregulated.
  2. Guns are needed to violently rebel against your government.

If 1. is true the rebellion will be able to get guns. So there is not much of a problem in terms of 2. for outlawing guns.
