It's absolutely a possibility...not only that it's their duty to do IF the people of this country decide that it is what needs to be done.
That's why Congress has not only repealed amendments in the past...but added them as well. That's why they are called "amendments" to the Constitution. They amend the document.
I'm not sure that you and tens of millions of people would become "enemies of the state" at all. They already search us like criminals at airports, wiretap our phones, read our email, search our person, search our vehicles, etc., etc.
All those things were unheard of just a couple of decades ago. And people screamed bloody murder over it. But nobody did a thing. And let's face it, nobody will. Not you or tens of millions of others.
Look, there is an exact method that is laid out in the structure of our govt.
In order to have gun control they will have to repeal the 2nd amendment and replace it with another one.
They've done it before with other issues, and I'm sure they will do it again.
Anything else is infringing on our rights and freedom.
