Unless restrictions are imposed at the Federal level, the laxest State will undermine any States that try to take some action. For instance, Chicago has restrictions such as background checks but they can be easily avoided by driving a mere 27 kilometres to gun shops in Gary, Indiana where guns can be bought over the counter without any waiting period and without a licence. 

This is the crux of the problem, no central control, States doing their own thing and Politicians too worried about the gun lobby and the backlash with regards votes.
The guns will go underground for sure but any reduction is a win and lives will be saved..
