Start with a set of reasonable compromises. Assume the other guy takes his values as seriously as you take yours. Give what the other guy really wants to have, stick to your basic position, and hope there is some intercept.

To start, assume an individual right to own and carry civilian weapons. Define civilian weapons in terms of power, size of weapon and one shot per trigger pull. If you feel it necessary, include the felon and insane exceptions.

But above all quit the idea that you are above the law, that your own values trump everybody else's.
