I would think that person-to-person sales, which is as unregulated as unregulated can get, could be done much like transferring titles on a vehicle.
I mean, if you sell a dude your car, you want him to transfer the title immediately so as to relieve you of the responsibility from that car. If Dude has a wreck or gets a buttload of parking tickets and the car is still in your name, they are going to come looking for you.
Same should go for guns I suppose.
I got no problem with that really. What do you guys think about that?
well I always sell guns to people i know have CCWs and that I know don't have records (like lawyers and cops). If i don't have anyone interested in a gun I want to get rid of, I pay my dealer a 50 dollar commission he gets for selling it On his books for that reason
but If I had a record and had some guns I would only be selling the guns on the down low to people buying on the down low and that is what happens most of the time with prohibited persons. there are plenty of ways to bust lots of the illegal acquisitions of guns
did YOU know that if you buy more than ONE handgun in 5 business days or less from the same dealer, the dealer has to report that to the ATF. now I have bought 2 guns many times from the same dealer on the same day and I have NEVER had the ATF inquire. Probably because they know I am a well known competitive shooter etc. But I know where some clown bought 20 Jennings at one time (these are the guns that should come with a ski mask or half a pair of panty hose) and the ATF did not look into it UNTIL half the guns ended up in NYC a few months later
Straw purchases-easy to bust. You buy a gun for your boyfriend who has a record a mile long and he gets busted, the gun will come back to you. some tough questions will follow
there are plenty of ways to really put a dent in crooks getting guns
