It is the basically the national gun owners registry.
And like communism and abortions, people have been conned into supporting it.
I bought a .22 rifle and ammo at a hardware store at age 17.
Very different world now.

For those who weren’t around to remember, it used to be one could buy a firearm in most states without the state’s permission. The assassination attempt in 1933 led to the National Firearms Act of 1934 which very nearly imposed NFA taxes and restrictions on all handguns and did lead to taxes and restrictions on silencers, short barreled shotguns and short barreled long guns.
JFK’s assassination in 1963 and the assassinations of RFK and MLK in 1968 gave us the current regulations. Firearm dealers have to be licensed by the FedGov and record all sales. To buy a gun at a dealer one has to fill out form 4473. To buy a handgun one must be one’s own state. It is illegal to give, lend or sell a firearm across state lines without doing the transfer through a federally licensed dealer.
Because of all these laws, what is called ‘gun violence’ by the libs has pretty much vanished from the land.

And they “don’t deserve” to know your plans for SCOTUS, right Joe?
And I’ve got a bridge to sell anyone who thinks they actually destroy those background check records once the sale is approved. Assume there’s a federal registry of every dealer purchase you’ve made since the background check went into effect.
The idea that my son could have done that without some Democrat having a stroke...

I actually purchased a handgun this week. Process was pretty smooth and only took a few minutes. After that I went on a friends boat and the gun accidentally fell in the lake. Darn it.
***Prior to 1968,***
I remember those good old days. You could buy over state lines with no problems, no questions asked. Guns were available in gun stores, clothing stores, grocery stores, bus stations, book stores, pawn shops, gas stations, home kitchen tables, and many many other stores.

There are millions of weapons handed down thru families from Korean war, ww2, vietnam,...
No records nowhere. So much for background checks ....they must think Americans are stupid or something
All these unconstitutional laws need to be thrown out and the media propagandists who push these need to be exposed for their hypocrisy: no police protection and no armed guards for any of them. Any politician who signed such a bill needs to have their taxpayer protection stripped immediately, local, state, or Federal.
