when was the last time you worried about a rocket or mortar round hitting your house? that is how israel and the us are different.
as far as confiscation: watch this video, about 15 seconds in you’ll here a soundbite, idgaf if sweden or israel isn’t attempting to confiscate their citizens weapons. It is my right as a living person to defend my life, firearms aren’t a toy or a hobby, they are tools, keeping rounds at a range and that being the only place you can use them is stupid IMO. thats like saying you can own a vehicle but can only operate it on a closed track.
