Won't ever happen, they have a right to bear arms, there's no definition of the type of arms that they can carry.
Plus with all of the conceal and carry stuff, and on top of that the gun shows that people can go in and buy the latest weapons with little in the way of checks.
Canada had it easier because we don't have any rights under the constitution to bear arms or form militias, so the government can do what they want in terms of restricting weapons by changing the law.
But you're not going to get Americans to agree to change a major amendment of the constitution.
Even Trump with all his promises of getting the 14th amendment changed would have a major fight through the supreme court with 100 years of challenges.
