Wouldn't it be neat to contact this lady and show her that the basic premise of her article is flawed? That it is, in fact, law of Michigan that background checks are performed on private sellers at gun shows?
It is on PISTOLS. On longguns, Michigan just uses federal law. NICS for dealers.
NAtionwide, the only so called loophole is private sales. The ASD(anti self-defense) lobby calls them unlicense dealers.
