I’m torn over this but I think they are wise to get out in front on this because we all know that the “Do something!!!” cries are already starting.

Yeh, do something. Get rid of the anti-gun laws. Let us protect ourselves since the government won't.

I doubt that most of the people here have sold and transfered hundreds of firearms to individuals as I have in the past twenty-five years. Before the NICS check the Form 4473 "yellow form" was pretty much of a joke. Very rarely would a person truthfully answer yes to one of the questions that made them a "prohibited" person. Even after NICS began there is still one question on the form that is not verified by the check: "Have you ever been committed to a mental institution or been adjudicated mentally defective?" BTW, unlike the misdemeanor domestic violence disqualifier this one can be expunged or pardoned and is not a lifetime prohibition against possessing a firearm.

If we are going to have the check at all then let's make it accurate.

I’d trust Dingell and the NRA to come up with some good changes. The problem is that any new legislation will be loaded up with crap by the Democrats and nothing will happen. Same as always.
