This doesn't pass the stink test - there is something fishy going on here.

All commercial sales already require a background check so, as presented here, this bill would change nothing.
And we know that's not going to happen.

So what is the real purpose of the bill?

There is probably some sort of Clintonion weasle-word parsing in the specifics that will enable future expansion of the government's powers to control and/or restrict gun sales and transfers.

You can trust these politicians about as far as you could toss Queen Michelle, uphill and against the wind.

Struck me precisely the same. This background check BEE ESS is a ruse for something else. One more example of corralling the law abiding and doing nothing to inhibit criminals, and Ayn had plenty to say on that subject as well.
