We've had a centralized pistol registry for over 3/4 of a century. Name 2 people who's lives it saved.
I would say that it's cost more than a few over the years, as it was used as a tool to confiscate and prohibit half the pistols in Canada. Many people decided not to jump through the hoops and went without a pistol.
And many an unarmed jogger, or camper has fallen prey to predators both 2 legged and 4 legged for lack of a suitable weapon.
