The term "gun show loophole" brentspeak Dec 2014 #9

No response? malokvale77 Dec 2014 #10

Why wasn't it named the "private sale" loophole? n/t beevul Dec 2014 #75

I think the complaint is about the term "gun show" Recursion Dec 2014 #82

Responsible gun owners would have paid an FFL to handle background check and transfer, Hoyt Dec 2014 #31

Sure the seller could, bur LynnTTT Dec 2014 #55

That's the problem with the law, and the problem with gun owners. They don't give a darn. Hoyt Dec 2014 #56

States can close this. OR, the federal government can open up NICS so private sellers AtheistCrusader Dec 2014 #4

Gun owners can do it through an FFL right now. Not a good idea to open it to public. Hoyt Dec 2014 #32

No, there are only record keeping requirements from a dealer. AtheistCrusader Dec 2014 #34

An FFL has to keep records. Your average yahoo selling a gun in a parking lot, isn't Hoyt Dec 2014 #35

The average yahoo in a parking lot isn't required to do that. AtheistCrusader Dec 2014 #36

That's why it needs to go through FFL. We're going around in circles, I think I'll get off. Hoyt Dec 2014 #48

Well, they aren't going to open up NICS, so on that, we agree. It'll have to go through an FFL. AtheistCrusader Dec 2014 #49

UBCs are the law where I live. hack89 Dec 2014 #52

I realize the guy who sold the gun can't be charged, legally. Morally, it's another question. Hoyt Dec 2014 #53

I agree that it currently does not work that way. ManiacJoe Dec 2014 #57
