If you had a national database of firearm purchases (sorta a registry but not really).

Then as a way to make revenue have Police Departments or Licensed dealers act as agents in every private to private sale. Then enact some laws that if random Joe, that I sold a gun to, gets busted using it to commit a crime I face criminal charges as well if I didn't use a agent for the sale. Same for if its ever stolen and I don't report it.
That would cut down on gun related crime heavily by going after the black market on them. As I said I don't see a way you can stop a guy like the one in Vegas who had tons of resources at his disposal or one like Sandy Hook where the shooter actually murdered the gun owner before going on a rampage.
