The Supreme Court has already ruled that citizens have a fundamental right to bear arms in common use that are also suitable as militia weapons. Those are the specific characteristics required by the Supreme Court (U.S. v. Miller, D.C. v. Heller), and all firearms that meet that description are foreclosed from government restrictions.
These are not suggestions. They are the law of the land as to how Second Amendment protection is to be applied.
The attempt to define the 'preferred' violations of constitutional protections as "common sense gun safety laws" is immaterial. Fundamental rights are not subject to majority opinion or plebiscite; they are rights, not privileges, and are sacrosanct.

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
[The American Colonies were] all democratic governments, where the power is in the hands of the people and where there is not the least difficulty or jealousy about putting arms into the hands of every man in the country. [European countries should not] be ignorant of the strength and the force of such a form of government and how strenuously and almost wonderfully people living under one have sometimes exerted themselves in defence of their rights and liberties and how fatally it has ended with many a man and many a state who have entered into quarrels, wars and contests with them. — George Mason, "Remarks on Annual Elections for the Fairfax Independent Company" in The Papers of George Mason, 1725-1792, ed Robert A. Rutland (Chapel Hill, 1970). |
