Right, but this cuts to the easy access issue.
It is not enough at the point of sale to simply say "they have no record".
Our allies like Australia and Japan, still allow firearm ownership. It is a lie to say they do not. They do. But what they do, that America does not, is insure whomever buys it, isn't going to get stupid after the buy. And they are far quicker to take them away from people who do get stupid after the buy.
If someone is a responsible gun owner, and they do exist, then they should want the industry and shops to vet better, so that only responsible buyers have them.
