I don't think I have ever met anyone who wants to ban private ownership of a handgun. The people who want to restrict gun ownership are interested in limiting the number of handguns a person owns, preventing people from buying 50 Cals, restricting the sale of machine guns and the like... or they want stricter security on handgun sales with real background checks and waiting periods. If someone offered a limit of any 1 handgun per civilian the anti-gun lobby would be over the moon with excitement to accept that offer.
Personally I believe people should own any guns they want but any crime committed with a gun you own (whether it was by you or someone who stole it or took it etc) should be YOUR legal responsibility. If someone steals your gun and kills someone, you do the time for murder right alongside them.
