Make it illegal to own them, and offer a cash buy-back program to get the ones out there. There will always be guns out there - and making it illegal would boost the amount of illegal guns coming over the border - but it would significantly cut down on gun-related deaths in the long run.
Unrealistic though, I know. I actually think trying to do this would for many trigger that whole armed resistance against the government that a lot of pro-guns folks consider the key reason for needing their weapons in the first place.
