Then why not guns in a vending machine?......................
I remember pre-1968 when you could get a gun anywhere as most stores had a counter of them. Guns were more available then as you could get a gun at a gas station, pawn shop, hardware store, clothing store, record shop, book store, liquor store, feed store, grocery store. They were everywhere! Cash and carry. No background check, no waiting period, no paperwork. No ID, Just look old enough.
Or you could drop a check in the mail and one would be shipped to your door.
And crime was very low. It was after JFK was murdered by a COMMIE and Bobby Kennedy murdered by a PALESTINIAN IMMIGRANT that the Dems declared war on the private ownership of firearms. That war on your rights is still going on.
