As long as guns have been around. The first major gun control law was the 1934 National Firearms Act which prohibited certain weapons. It was a response to the Valentine's Day Massacre, planned by Al Capone using machine guns. Gun control became a major issue after John Kennedy's assassination, resulting in the Gun Control Act of 1968 being passed to prevent criminals and people with mental illness from buying weapons.
Gun control legislation in the United States began in the 1930s, but the debate has gone on primarily since the late 1960s. Please see the Related Link for a timeline.

Nope. Look at how well DRUG control works. They have been illegal for many years. You can still get drugs.
Never. You have been charged therefore you cannot carry a gun.
Depends on the gun, but walnut has long been a favorite wood.
