Every gun you buy at a gun store now comes with a sales receipt and a background check telling the authorities who you are what you bought and what to look for when they come to grab those guns.

I have been doing a little research on the subject. If I understand it correctly, that applies to Federally Licensed Gun Dealers-not private Gun dealers.

It also depends on state laws.

Unless things have changed, our state does not require:
permit
registration
licensing
permit to carry
For rifles and shotguns.

For handguns-same thing except, do need a permit for concealed carry.

You do have to be careful about intoxication. Strict laws about being intoxicated and having a gun. Also felons who buy guns are breaking the law.

If you decide to get a concealed carry permit, then you are on the radar, cause you have to pass a background check.

Yes, in my state no permit is required for either open or concealed carry.
