In the US, due process is only required for deprivation of life, liberty, or property.

This is incorrect.

The Fifth Amendment expands that coverage[1] to which the Fourteenth adds the equal protection clause [2].

As a result, the “Supreme Court of the United States interprets the clauses as providing four protections: procedural due process (in civil and criminal proceedings), substantive due process, a prohibition against vague laws, and as the vehicle for the incorporation of the Bill of Rights“ [3].

Why would a gun not count as property and/or liberty?
