People don't run booths at gun shows unless they are dealers. So you're saying that non-licensed people never sell guns at gun shows? In 33 states, private gun owners are not restricted from selling guns at gun shows. http://civilliberty....a/Gun-Shows.htm Your first statement was "40% of t...

There are 33 states in which private gun owners are not restricted from selling guns at gun shows. Again that only applies to licensed firearms dealers. Right back at you. I live in one of those 33 states, and when I bought my first gun at a gun show, they called the Feds. After that, I got a conc...

Interstate gun sales must go through an FFL, by federal law, so there should have been an NICS on those sales, so the "loophole" doesn't apply in this instance....

Gun show loophole. Google it. I find it amazing you're just not seeing it. Lemme see if I can make it clearer. There are laws in place that prohibit a felon from owning, possessing and acquiring firearms. Felons still acquire them. So pass another law. And they'll still acquire them....

Maybe you should talk to Wayne LaPierre about that. 40% of the weapons sold are sold with no backround checks at all, thanks to things like the gun show loophole, which the NRA fights to keep in effect, even though 74% of NRA members believe that loophole needs to be closed. Never mind the numbers...

The regulations vary from state to state. yeah. i looked it up after i posted that. i didn't realize the "loophole" was personal sales transactions. i guess that loophole is still open here....

that's what i was thinking. i know at indiana gun shows, there is a background check. the only way to purchasea gun without one here is at horse auctions and things like that or personal trades like you mentioned. a very low number.The regulations vary from state to state.Unfortunately, current fede...
