Typical unfounded scare tactics. FWIW, I went to a gun show a few weeks ago and bought a rifle. The guy turned out to be a licensed dealer. I filled out the usual federal forms and noted that the social security number is now optional. The guy took the form and my driver's license and went off to a phone. In about five minutes he was back with the approval.
The antis would have you believe that gun shows are weapons bazaars for terrorists. Not true. Not to mention it's common knowledge, at least for those who know the truth, they're cruised by the ATF.

Same here. I bought an AR-15, and a semi-auto pistol at a gunshow in Mobile Alabama (I don't even live there). The backround check took about 30 minutes. What loophole?
If the bad guys are talking about private person to private person sales, then they don't need to mention gunshows. Private sales go on all the time, at places other than gun shows.
