Laws for owning and using firearms will vary ENORMOUSLY from one state to another- and from one country to another. MOST states set limits on who can own a gun (age, past history, etc) It may restrict the TYPE of gun that may be owned (machineguns have special licensing requirements, etc) It may set limits on who may carry a firearm concealed, and places that firearms may not be carried. With regard to the USE of firearms, this also a complex area, covering sporting as well as defensive use. In defense, as in the use of ANY potentially deadly force (such as getting whacked with a ball bat) there are limits on when this is justifiable. In total, there are over 20,000 different laws that relate to guns in the US.

Can you legally have two names?

It depends on the state you live in. In my home state of Indiana, you can have a legal name and an alias. By using the alias to sign documents and by "owning" the name (aka using it to identify yourself) it becomes a legal name in the same manner that "possession is 90% of the law". If you use it, it becomes a legal name for you, much like a pen name.
