Even here in Australia you do not need a license to buy an ammunition press capable of manufacturing 200 rounds an hour. Although access to components is controlled this is not even remotely workable solution, as a resourceful person can easily circumvent the restriction. You can't fix this with a post in an Internet forum. But licensing and registering purchases so that at least someone other than a gun dealer is assessing why an individual wants to own multiple firearms would be a start.
The people who commit these acts clearly are not sane. Ideally the mental health system would be able to identify and treat them before these things happen. Now 20 or so families have to endure what must be the worst torment imaginable. I feel sick thinking about it when I look at my two little girls.
My sympathy to the community now affected.
