They may the same to you, but there is a massive difference in handguns and rifles. A ban on assault style rifles wouldn't even impact handguns, they are a completely different type of gun and have very strict regulations. Handguns already have strict rules and it is incredibly rare a legal one is used in a gun crime.

The illegal guns are the problem. No amount of regulation on legal gun owners will stop illegal gun activity.
