No, even Michael Bloomberg's own John Hopkins center states that the data does not show a ban on assault weapons as being effective. There is no reason that an adult of sound mind, good legal standing, and sufficient training cannot privately own a firearm of any kind or any accessories to that firearm. Training, mental health checks, and criminal background checks are the only laws that have been proven to work. Even then, training and background checks should be paid for by taxes rather than out of pocket.
