Every gun on the streets was legal at some point, unless there are illegal gun manufacturers. The gun company makes their money regardless of where their product ends up. This is why the NRA is against any kind of restrictions whatsoever. They represent the the gun manufacturers. All they are interested in is helping their benefactors make a profit.

there are legal gun vendors who sell illegal as well. of the guns are legal but by the time they are sold, they become illegal, as they are sold to people without permits, or over wires that do not propose ID'ing the individuals buying; this as well.

You do realize that most of the violent gun acts are committed by criminal gang members? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_violence_in_the_United_States
They're so violent because of the endless supply of guns available to them. Other countries have gangs. Britain. Canada. Fuck Toronto's gang culture rivals just about any place in America, but without the guns they are a nuisance instead of a threat to the entire urban landscape.

Our gangs are more prevalent and violent because of the composition of the people that are inclined to be members.

There are many problematic factors contributing to the situation of course. To name a few:
- The huge gap between rich and poor. - Segregation. - Police violence.
But I'm confident guns don't help in solving any of those.
Allowing them simply makes no sense. Do you think any murders have been prevented because people are allowed to own a gun for self defense? I doubt it. At best the gang member got killed instead of his victim.

but Qman's murder has been postponed because he has a gun, even though he's never been attacked by someone with a gun in his life.
