Quote:As of August 2013, 17 U.S. states require background checks at gun shows.[11] Seven states require background checks on all gun sales at gun shows: California, Colorado, Connecticut, Illinois, New York, Oregon, and Rhode Island. Four require background checks on all handgun purchases at gun shows: Hawaii, Maryland, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. Six require individuals to obtain a permit that involves a background check to purchase handguns: Iowa, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, and North Carolina. The remaining 33 states do not restrict private, intrastate sales of firearms at gun shows in any manner.
Bullshit, Min. Did you even read that?
Wikipedia Wrote:Gun show loophole is a pejorative term-of-art that refers to private sellers at gun shows not being required to perform a background check on private buyers,
in a longstanding practice of private commerce in the United States.
It is not just gun shows - NO private sales require a background check and ALL dealer sales do.
Except that in Massachusetts, we are required to fill out and submit form FA-10 for some private sales now.
