| 40. This is NOT the gun show loophole... |
|
It IS, a PRIVATE SALE. Open up NICS to all of us.
Private Sale, means just that if my neighbor, wants to buy something, I can sell it too him. I Will resist any laws that require private sales go thru an FFL dealer.
The ONLY way to enforce such a law, is registration...And since registration is so far out of the question, it is a non-starter...The government does not have any justification for trying to control my private property, or family heirlooms...It is NONE of their beeswax.
All I see is another "hit peice" on guns....Nothing new...

You aren't doing a background check, you are doing an NICS check. |

The problem is that to DO an NICS check you need personal information |

I would use a mail notification system and severe penalties for misusing NICS |

Sure, then you can use a FFL who gets the same information. |

In the case with your level of desired confidence you and the seller could go to a FFL. |

Just open NICS to private sellers and states can require it as part their laws. |

NICS is not a crime database - It is a list of prohibited persons |
