One way around the current background check requirement is to be licensed to carry a concealed handgun in some of the states, where a background check is not required.
I don't know about other states, but in Texas a CCW license holder can walk in and buy any weapon without either a background check or a waiting period.
The only other legal methods I know of are through inheritance, gift, or private transactions. And the gun control freaks - like the Brady bunch - are working on those now.

"private transactions"?

This looks promising... If the gun was not registered by the original owner.

The background check does not bother me, just a few speeding tickets (FBI might know of my membership in the VRWC though)

I just do not want others knowing I have a gun.
