Libertarian stance on gun control below, talk all you want. Voting democrat or Republican is the lost cause, not a third party that actually has a platform that lines up with gun owners freedom.
Copied section below.
Second Amendment recognizes an individual right
We affirm the individual right recognized by the Second Amendment to keep and bear arms, and oppose the prosecution of individuals for exercising their rights of self-defense. Private property owners should be free to establish their own conditions regarding the presence of personal defense weapons on their own property. We oppose all laws at any level of government restricting, registering, or monitoring the ownership, manufacture, or transfer of firearms or ammunition.

Affirm the right to keep and bear arms
The only legitimate use of force is in defense of individual rights--life, liberty, and justly acquired property--against aggression. This right inheres in the individual, who may agree to be aided by any group. We affirm the right to keep and bear arms, and oppose the prosecution of individuals for exercising their rights of self-defense. We oppose all laws at any level of government requiring registration of, or restricting, the ownership, manufacture, or transfer or sale of firearms or ammunition.

Repeal all gun control laws and regulation of weapons

We support repeal of all gun control laws and we demand the immediate abolition of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms.
