I claimed that legal gun owners rarely commit the crime, i made no claims on the origins of those guns.

The fact that you're trying to bring legal ownership to this discussions means that you are claiming that the origin of guns is an important detail. But at this point we already know that reducing the presence of guns in this world is good, and we already know that making it harder and harder to acquire guns helps reducing the presence of guns. So while true that legality matters in crime statistics, the main point still stands: gun laws can and should be more strict. There's never going to be a point in time where this sentence is not true, unless guns stop existing.
