Another issue that this would have would be firearms that were passed down from family. When my dad died when I was a teenager I knew nothing about guns but I still ended up with all of his guns. I wanted to keep them because they were my dad's but I wasn't going to go out and get trained on them. In fact, it was almost a decade later before I even shot one of them. I know you said the training would be for becoming eligible to purchase a firearm but if you're going to force purchases to require the training you would have to force everyone or the system would be abused. All the person would have to do is buy a gun in a private sell and if they were caught with it they would say their dead uncle left it to them or something.
