 It's called mutually assured destruction. The majority of criminals aren't suicidal. They simply want to commit their crime, gain what they can, and disappear. Knowing that at any moment someone else could pull a gun on them dampers their will to commit the crime in the first place. It's why places with the least restcitive gun laws end up having the least gun related crimes. If people are so set banning guns because people can use them to kill other people, then you might as well ban the other million and one items people can use to kill other people. 

you mean like the death sentence already does ? lol

Death sentence is very rarely given out to gun weilding or violent criminals. It takes a 1st degree murder conviction to get that.

well neither are life sentences working as a detterence for committing crimes.
