Another problem is the fact that there simply weren't enough gun owners to protest at the time. When the Handgun Ban was passed, I think I remember reading that there were 60,000 license holders, and that about 150,000 handguns were confiscated. Across a population of 60 million (which is growing even bigger, thanks to immigration of West-hating Muslims), that's not quite enough to make a political impact on any MP who sponsors gun bans.
Whereas any politician in the U.S. who tried to ban guns would have to answer to a third of the population, including 5 million NRA members.
