27. The problem is that private sales are a state issue
which means state money to implement, run and enforce. Because you know that Congress will not spend a dime for it. Which means there will not be uniform enforcement which will severely undermine the effectiveness of it. And as a practical matter, just how will the state be aware of a private sale? It is not like buying a gun from a FFL dealer who has federally mandated reporting requirement.

The states have more important things to spend money on like education, health care and social services.
