What makes you think this? Are there some sort of deadlines?
I'm basing that analysis on two factors:

1. The session ends two weeks from Wednesday.
2. Controversial political announcements are typically made on Friday afternoons so as to minimize bad publicity.

The odds of passing a controversial gun bill in less than two weeks, even during a special session, are pretty slim, and announcing a controversial addition to the special session call during the first half of the week is pretty much guaranteed to meet with a maximum of negative press.
Isn't it also possible he plans to call a gun-specific session?
