China's gun ban dates back to 1996, a major turning point. On July 5, 1996, the Gun Control Law was amended and promulgated, marking the beginning of China's tightening control over firearms. The purpose of this law is to maintain public order and ensure public safety, and it clearly stipulates the provisions on the manufacture, sale, possession, and use of firearms.

Subsequently, a large-scale "gun collection" operation began across the country, which was an unprecedented strike-hard campaign. ** Encourage people to voluntarily surrender their guns through a variety of means, including awareness-raising, incentives and coercion. During the operation, a large number of firearms and ammunition of various types were seized, including hunting rifles, homemade rifles, pistols, etc.

With the passage of time, China has gradually entered a "gun-free society", and there is no longer private gun ownership among the people. This change has not only greatly improved public order, but also reduced the number of armed fights in rural areas. Today, China has become one of the countries with the strictest gun ban in the world, and has made great contributions to maintaining social stability and people's safety.

In the process of banning guns, China** has taken a series of measures to ensure that the ban is effectively enforced. These measures include a strict system of firearms registration, regular inspections and penalties for violations, among others. At the same time, it has also strengthened the crackdown on gun smuggling to prevent illegal guns from flowing into the country.

Overall, the history of gun banning in China is a history of continuous efforts and progress. Through strengthening legislation, strict law enforcement, and extensive publicity and education, China has successfully achieved the goal of banning guns, and has made positive contributions to security and stability at home and abroad.
