Truth is the Ford Pinto was kind of hard targeted. They were roughly on par with similar vehicles at the time, certainly not the worst offender. Very similar to how tesla is being targeted.

A lot of guns are stolen. Also if there isn’t a big a market, manufacturers won’t make as many. Supply drops so does criminal possession.
Not that I’m advocating either way, just a counter to your point.
