But the thing is full autos have been banned since 1986 (38yr ago), "prebans" were all manufactured before then and even those are subject to the NFA (you can only have"postbans" with an SOT, which basically means "gun manufacturer or federally licensed salesman"), so no currently "to be added" gun control regulates full auto since it is already tantamount to illegal. They are trying to ban semi autos that happen to look like they maybe could be full autos but don't function the same, which is what people take umbrage with. (Semi auto being "how you normally think guns function" probably, one bullet per pull of trigger, auto being "pull trigger, gun go bang until not pull trigger"). Also btw "weapons of war" all pretty much do the "full auto" thing, (thus the difference between ar15 and m16/m4,) all those "weapons of war" as you say are actually those aforementioned pre- or post-ban machine guns that civilians basically can't get already (unless they were manufactured before 86 and their form 4(iirc) gets approved by the ATF, or they have their FFL and SOT.)

Furthermore anyone with felony convictions (basically all violent crime), or even misdemeanor DV convictions (aside from VT of all places, for some fucking reason) are already federally barred from firearms ownership.

Furtherfurtherrmore "stores" (FFL dealers, as they're known) are legally required to run an FBI background check (NICs, ATF Form 4473) on ALL gun sales they do. Private sellers don't, but they've been asking for access to NICs for YEARS and the state won't give it to them, and there are more restrictions on private sellers (mostly, the ATF comes knocking with "sufficient quantity..." which they can make up on a whim, "within a year.")
