Simple hypothesis: the greater availability of firearms in a community increases the rate of firearms homicides.
You also stated that the total homicide rates for the US and for Australia are roughly equal, so what difference does it make that in the US the weapon of choice is a firearm. To state the bloody obvious, who cares? The overall homicide rate is the same. Simple hypothesis: when guns are not available, people will use other means to kill people.
