47. Federal government does not have the authority to regulate all private sales of used firearms
Edited on Sun Feb-10-08 11:09 AM by slackmaster
...four out of every ten guns are sold by unlicensed dealers with no background check at all.

That's baloney.

Anyone who runs a business selling firearms without an FFL is breaking existing law.

If you are referring to the secondary market of used firearms transferred in occasional non-commercial intrastate transactions between unlicensed individuals, please refrain from using misleading terms like "unlicensed dealers".
