An exception would have been made for noncommercial private sales between individuals not prohibited by federal law from buying a gun.

I'm very, very confused.

These purchases are already exempt from NICS. Can someone give me an idea as to what kind of purchase would be prohibited under this law?

The bill would have required all “commercial” sales to go through a gun dealer. Their definition of commercial sales included essentially any sale of a firearm. A much stricter definition than under Federal law. In effect “private sales as we know them in NH would have been eliminated.
