It's not a matter of gun control or what works as self defense: a gun's primary purpose is to kill. It's made to ignite a bit of powder, propelling a hunk of metal into an object. why was this made? to kill other people. What people use it for is irrelevant, I could use one as a flashlight, it's still designed to kill.

It depends on the gun.  Pistols were made to disable.  Not kill... which is one of the reasons why they are relativly weak. 

Handguns could be a LOT more deadlier then they are.

 

Also, Play-Doh was invented while making a wallpaper cleaner.

I don't know anyone that would logically say that Play-Doh's primary purpose is to clean walls.

Trying to attach inventor intent to a products primary purpose is asinine since there are tons of inventions used primarily for reasons other then originally designed.
