At that point, he doesnt have to worry about loosing voters and may push to leave his legacy as 'the president that put an end to gun violence'.

LBJ did that with the Gun Control Act because he had little to lose, and he had Congress behind him.
However, the current President does not have Congress behind him. The current President has more important political priorities. The current President has to conform with two Supreme Court decisions affirming the right of individuals to keep and bear arms.
