Gun ownership requires a license.
In some (many?) states owning a gun does not require a license, but carrying a loaded gun on your person does.
Great point—edited to update with this. In Massachusetts, you need a license to own a gun or ammo, and that is the same license as a concealed carry license. I definitely over-generalized above. Thanks for pointing that out!
