this seems like an intentional way to make sure that people can’t make things without paying the oligarchs. I think the fact that we are getting close to being able to make 90s level tech in garages is scaring the tech bros.

Nah, I suspect it's a way for the politicians to look like they're doing something about gun violence without, y'know, actually doing anything about gun violence. Or just generally to distract from what they're doing on other issues. "Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain" stuff.
