Ok, so I guess the topic should have given you some warning as to my question for us all….
So after thinking about all of the (gun) crime stats floating around, I would like to get a better understanding as to why some feel it important to be able to sell a (used) gun with out any of the same paperwork that you needed to fill out when the gun was new? Yep, I am talking about a background check for every gun sale, new or used.
See some of the stats I have seen show over 80% of “crime” guns were sold this way (I know, random stats can show just about anything). So I have to ask, what is the issue putting a stop to this? Is it the extra $20? Please try to remember, I don’t know a lot about the law, and am the product of our free education system (GED), so help me understand…
