I think there has to be new laws before there can be any type of sensitively training. And it's happening everywhere because cops assume their lives are in danger when infact they are the ones that are inhibiting prejudice. These types of hierarchy are deeply rooted and its something that needs to be made law. Cops have to be held accountable or they will continue to abuse power.
The problem is training. Not training on how to use a gun. Training on how to keep control of a volatile situation and project authority without having to pull the trigger. Watch any footage of UK armed police dealing criminals
They get vetted before selection so they have an innate ability to handle high stress situations and are trained and drilled constantly.
American cops don't seem to get any of that. In huge numbers of shootings they've just panicked and reacted. The woman shot through her own window is a perfect example.

Apparently, it's easy to simply buy extenders, or even build a clip from scratch.
Your average person might not go to the trouble, but I doubt any law would stop the motivated killer with internet access and a few bucks to blow.

The NRA is generally against most restrictions on guns. They're against expanding background checks, they're against getting rid of the loophole that allows people to get a gun if a background check isn't done in three days, they want to do away with waiting periods etc.
Pretty sure some of that pushback is against federal meddling in state affairs.
Basically, they want it left to each state, and not give the feds another reason to impose on state authorities (As an example of something Democrats would disagree with, the INS has no right to march into states, tap into local information networks, and round up undocumented immigrants)

"Although litigation plays an extremely important role in the fight for the right to keep and bear arms, NRA and CRPA are heavily involved in many other tremendous and equally important endeavors throughout California and across the nation." -snip
The one time the NRA supported gun restrictions like "open & carry" in California was in the late 60's after the Black Panthers marched with guns. See: The Mulford Act: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mulford_Act
The Mulford Act was a 1967 California bill that repealed a law allowing public carrying of loaded firearms. Named after Republican assemblyman Don Mulford, and signed into law by governor of California Ronald Reagan, the bill was crafted with the goal of disarming members of the Black Panther Party who were lawfully conducting armed patrols of Oakland neighborhoods, -snip
Ideally, the NRA needs to be completely dismantled, it's gone grotesquely wayward from its roots of being a sensible gun ownership/rights organization.

Or the War on Drugs stopped drug distribution and use.

Or how the FDA prevented half the country from being fat.
Or how the DMV prevented accidents.
Or how the epa saved the environment.
Or how the more nationalized healthcare comes the faster the lines get.
