> strictest laws that the federation allows them to have

Note that "the federation" allowed states to have stricter gun laws until recently when we got a new partisan supreme court that is out of step with the previous 200 years of jurispudence.

It was confirmed for the previous ~130 or so, at least, since United States v. Cruikshank... although I certainly wouldn't want to go back to those days before the Bill of Rights were incorporated against state/local governments... Basically it was a blank check for racists to suppress minorities.

The result of United States v. Cruikshank was that southern states were allowed to to prohibit black individuals from owning firearms to defend themselves from the KKK. Not exactly a great example of gun control.

What's also crazy it is that it is also relatively recently that the first amendment was incorporated against states and localities as well.

> Gun manufacturers are likely against these types of regulations because many of them would affect manufacturers and the tools they use too.

No chance. For them compliance is the easiest thing in the world to law like that

Well, the NRA has come out against all of these proposed bills and has mentioned concerns about requirements that they may place on manufacturers.
