The OP's idea is not workable because, typically, drivers' licenses are valid for many years. (For example, my current license has a term of 10 years.) This would be useless in determining gun eligibility, unless the state is required to revoke and reissue licenses whenever disqualifying events occurred (felony convictions, domestic assault convictions, etc.). There would be more holes in this system than in the current NICS system. Besides, it would be extremely expensive for the states to administer.
