... FFL licensee's place of business, whatever it may be: pawnshop, gunsmith's shop, etc. Police don't do NICS checks: not their job. In my experience, FFLs charge anywhere from $20 to $35, but I've heard of much higher charges. There is no mandated fee schedule for this -- it's whatever the FFL feels like charging.

Friend selling to friend would, of course, be very hard to detect, but then any illegal sale -- whether guns, drugs, or whatever -- is hard to detect without undercover operations.

I'm in favor of this. In the interest of compromise, may we then have 50-state concealed-carry reciprocity?
