As a firearms collector, hunter, and landlord I do not know why you would want to prevent quality tenants who own firearms to rent from you.

If they are not legally able to own a firearm or are of poor charter that they will misuse that firearm you have done a poor job with your screening of tenants.

Most states already have laws that are strict and severe for misuse of a firearm including improper storage where children may have access to a loaded weapon or ability to easily load that weapon.

You cannot prevent people from lawfully keeping firearms within their homes. As seeing that assault rifles are illegal to own without proper class 3 license, I highly doubt any of your tenants have assault rifles laying around in a closet. Plus it cost around $20,000 for the licensing and purchase of an assault rifle.

You can prohibit open and concealed carry within your common areas such as pool, rental offices, etc.

There were "assault shotguns." Several of them. Who has several assault shotguns?
