69. my aren't we pissed off

I grew up in a rural area and still live in one.
Just from the ones I worked with, went to war with, went to church with, not much. Many are Evangelicals.
You can say anything you want.

And as far as those background checks go, we all know how well they've worked out, don't we?

NFA is not a NICS phone call that works only as well as states keep their shit together.
read further.

All NFA items must be registered with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF). Private owners wishing to purchase an NFA item must obtain approval from the ATF, obtain a signature from the Chief Law Enforcement Officer (CLEO) who is the county sheriff or city or town chief of police (not necessarily permission), pass an extensive background check to include submitting a photograph and fingerprints, fully register the firearm, receive ATF written permission before moving the firearm across state lines, and pay a tax. The request to transfer ownership of an NFA item is made on an ATF Form 4.

Corporations are exempt from the CLEO signature.
