I read the info provided by kat. It appears to me that the Nazi may not have confiscated firarms from the general population, but you evidently had to be licensed to own one. It seems the same to me as gun registration which many, perhaps most, gun owners in the U. S. do not favor. Through licensing, the Nazi officials knew where the guns were.

I think those opposed to gun control in the U. S. would object strenously to licensing of firearms.
