The logistics on liability insurance are complicated, yes. And not entirely the answer - we have a horrific problem with hit and run accidents here in L.A., and part of the problem, apparently, is not just uninsured drivers but people who don't want to pay more for their insurance (and who clearly have a skewed notion of personal responsibility, another topic.) What I do think needs to happen, though, is that as you say, everyone buying guns needs to realize that they are part of a particular culture, one that to me is one which inevitably ends in the endless drumbeat of gun massacre - and that those costs not be continually shoved off onto "society."
