24. the only people calling it a loophole is the Brady Campaign

the ATF isn't calling it a loophole as far as I can tell. There is a law to bust them. The ATF spokesman described people who were violating the Gun Control Act. These guys are going from state to state, selling as a business without an FFL. That is a blatant of the Gun Control Act on two different levels. Selling for profit, and interstate trade. I miss the loophole here. Maybe ATF doesn't have the people to follow these guys to prove their case, or just lazy. I don't know, it's pretty clear to me.

Now, if unlicensed people are following a circuit outside of their state, where they would have good reason to believe they would be selling to someone from a different state than them, that is an easy conviction. It's clear to me.
