Still nearly no one here owns a gun.

If you're speaking about Germany, leave the city, talk to some older folks.
You'd be surprised

They are virtually banned.

There is about as much regulation around guns as around cars in Germany. The license, tax and insurance costs much less for guns, and no one fails the required test unless they point the gun at an instructor.
No one would claim cars are banned.
