“Isnt this a reasonable idea if its optional?
Say an individual is selling a weapon and has a buyer they feel might be a bit sketchy, wouldnt 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 its optional, it seems okay. Unless Im missing something?”
I think the part you are missing is why would any sensible gun owner sell a gun to someone that is a bit “sketchy”? Would you sell a gun to your unhinged, violent, psycho relative?
No, not if I knew someone was unhinged or violent. If I was fetching a great price for something I might be tempted to overlook "sketchy" lol. I was just thinking this would be nice if it were optional.
Anyway, apparently this service is already available anyway which I didn't know.
