well, I suppose its a question that was more described under the lens of the tragedy that inspired it...
Those parents of Sandy Hook had expected a lot more than closing a loophole... they had hoped for an actual AR ban... like the one that expired with the Brady Bill.
Closing a loophole wasn't the goal; but it was expected to be achievable. In the end it wasn't.
