Wouldn’t it be fun to run one on Holder and the ATF officials that were arranging for guns to go to cartel killers?
Shouldn’t these jackasses be out pimping guns to some Mexican drug cartel or something?
This government group should have been gone years ago.
The statists want registration of all guns so they can confiscate those guns later.
The current administration just like the clinton group is anti-American.
I really don’t think that the government understands how many gun purchases /trades are between private parties. Hasn’t the database that is used for guns bought from FFLs been overwhelmed lately? Imagine how overtaxed the system will become if every single private transaction went through the database as well. Buying new guns from dealers is fun and all, but most of the guns that I have ever known, as well as those of my family and numerous friends has been through private purchases or trades for services rendered. I imagine that this is not unique to my little circle.
Isn’t this a reasonable idea if it’s optional?
Say an individual is selling a weapon and has a buyer they feel might be a bit sketchy, wouldn’t the option of using the local gun shops background check system be kind of nice? Or a collector that sells a lot of guns too and would just feel more comfortable using the gun shops background check system for their private sales? I mean, if it’s optional, it seems okay. Unless I’m missing something?
Their massacre of innnocents at Waco should have been their end.
All would be just wonderful if the little dears were helping us honest citizens have a straightforward venue to find out if a potential buyer is a vicious killer or a psycho. Nah, they want us to tell our life stories, give every bit of our private vital data to the feds and then they’ll tell us that this guy can’t have a gun because he had an unpaid parking ticket in Newark in 1959. We don’t need that kind of help, do we?
He says, 'No, not without a background check'...
You walk down the aisle of a gun show with a firearm to sell.
A man walks toward you with a nice rifle.
You stop, talk, wheel, deal, exchange firearms and a little cash, then go on your way. And what is wrong with that?
Years ago, I could make such a deal in the first isle. Then trade of my new aquisition in the third isle.
Then do it again in the 7th isle.
When I leave I may have exchanged guns five or six times.
And how is the NICS going to stop this?
What would it take for this recommendation to become law, making it illegal to privately sell weapons without a background check?
They might go for it too!
Think of the business it will bring in what with the transfer fees and impulse sales after the sale.....
Kinda like the atf shutting down home business FFL dealers so it funnels folk to brick and mortar operations....
Universal background checks and a national database will be tantamount to universal registration...
Pretty sick
