You already gave the answer for this. You can get the guns out of criminals' hands by tracking the criminals. You don't have to track the guns of law-abiding citizens.



I really don't understand the argument from some gun owners that they don't want the government knowing who has the guns. How can we possibly get the guns out of the criminals hands if we can't track them?

Do people register and say, I am a criminal? If a person of criminal intent has guns, why would one think he would register them? Now of course there are ex felons. Why not have them register their guns? But if it is already illegal for a felon to own guns, why will they be willing to register their ownership? would seem that registration will be something that the honest law abiding people will have to do and that the scoff laws will scoff.
