Cane guns, zip guns, briefcase guns, i.e. guns that are designed to look like something else may be sufficiently unusual, and dangerous. If it isn't even recognizable as a gun, someone who as casually handled it wouldn't even know to treat it with proper gun safety protocol.
That's a good argument for banning firearms in general, given the plethora of airsoft and other replica firearms.

One problem with this whole argument is that we are working hard to come up with how to concede the ultimate argument, which is the right to bear arms. The "we'll give this up if you agree to not go after the rest" is an inherently losing argument. Basically, we are debating how to lose best.
