Massachusetts and New York are about tied for being the state with the strictest gun control laws. In both of those states, one must have a permit just to own a handgun. However, Washington D.C., though not a state, has the strictest laws of all. They have an outright ban on handguns. You can have shotguns or rifles, but they have to be kept locked in a safe, without ammo. Also, they can't be semi-automatic.

Where is your stance on gun control?
Your question asks for an opinion. My opinion is that gun control laws are based on a flawed belief that a person who will break laws regarding murder, robbery and rape will obey another law that says they may not have a gun. There are already about 20,000 Federal, State, and local gun laws on the books in the US. Gun control laws frequently do little except keep law abiding people from being able to defend themselves.
Which country has the loosest gun laws?
Define 'worst'. Do you mean which country has the laws which allow the most irresponsible gun ownership (which is debatable), or the strictest gun laws? The strictest would be Greece, where anyone wanting a gun licence has to take a strict examination from a psychiatrist and a gun doctor, and about 19/20 applications for a licence get rejected.
