Under current law, background checks on buyers are not required by unlicensed dealers who privately sell and trade firearms at the shows

Is that for long guns or handguns, or both?

In CT. if you want to buy a handgun at a show, it's just as if you were in the gun store. Full background check, must have a CCW, etc.

It would be for both unless they were antiques of pre 1898 manufacture.

That's a contradiction in terms. If someone is selling a firearm privately, HE'S NOT A DEALER. He's a private citizen.

The Eyebrow (Kaine) and the Virginian-Puke are lying to you.

They want to close the “loophole” that allows INDIVIDUALS to sell guns to each other.
