1. require psych evaluations first before allowing purchase of a firearm. require a ffl or a ccw permit to be allowed to transfer posession of firearm(with ffl no one has to have ccw. with person to person both parties should have a ccw. this is to keep the felons who are pretend they are not to get firearms from honest people.)
2. police departments should be allowed a budget to keep a psychologist or a few on the team in order to be able to make a call on if someone really needs to have their firearms confiscated. if the psychologist says yes the person should be able to appeal the decision with their own psychologist and allowed to get a court order to keep them. this would have also added effect of having someone to help deescalate encounters with the mentally unstable.
