    Every person or dealer with an FFL is Federally required to run a NICS background check on every firearms sale. Also, 21 states currently require the same background check to be done even on private gun sales. Meaning if someone wants to sell their gun to their neighbor, they're suppose to go to a shop and have the same NICS background check done to legally complete the sale. I find for some reason the "we must have universal background checks now!" crowd rarely knows anything about this.

    Tbh, I don't think that most gun safety advocates actually think that universal background checks will have a huge effect on gun homicides. Rather, it's more of a symbolic gesture to get the people who have historically been unwilling budge on these measures to do literally _anything_ preventative in that vein. I'm sure licensing is in fact a better and more effective path, but it's also moving the post, which will likely make the 2nd Amendment people jumpy

Pistols are almost impossible to acquire and shotguns and bolt action, or self loading, rifles require lengthy screening processes for you to be allowed to own one. That means you can't own any flashy guns like a .50 cal desert eagle, or an L96 AWS. In the US you can just go to the gun store and pick up whatever gun you'd like to try out at the range.

      Most of the sellers are gun stores, and you have to go through a background check. The loophole really is private sales regardless of venues. If you had run into someone at the gunshow who was a private person and wanted to purchase their gun, they wouldn't have needed a check. Same if you saw a local online listing for a firearm from a private person. Gun show loophole sounds better than private sale loophole though, so the name sticks.

      @merc_w0838 5 лет назад +10

      The explanation for that is pretty simple. If you hold a FFL or Federal Firearms License, you have to do a background check every time you transfer a gun.
      Here's how it works; If you're a FFL holder, every time you obtain a gun whether it be through trade, sale, whatever, you have to log it in to a log book. The ATF is the governing body for this and they will come to your place of residence or place of business (if you own a gun shop or something like that) and check your book and the guns in your possession to make sure everything you have is logged in properly. If one gun is missing in the book, or you aren't logging them in correctly you could loose your FFL. In that log book you need to write down the make, serial number (if one exists), name of the person you got the gun from, and date in which you obtained it. When the gun is sold or transferred to another person in any way, a background check of the person obtaining the gun must be done and the gun must be logged out.
      The normal situation at these gun shows is that those that have vendors and are selling guns have an FFL. All guns there have been logged into their book before the show. Once a gun is sold, traded or even given away, that gun must be transferred out of their books and a background check must be completed.
      The "loophole" that is always talked about is when some guy with no FFL decides to rent a vendor space at one of these shows to sell his guns. This is rare though because most gun owners do not have enough guns that they want to sell to justify renting a vendor space for a day. A non-FFL holder can legally do hand to hand sales if the person they are selling to is from the same state as they are and as long as it is not a handgun. Each state is different, but this is is the case in even the most conservative of states.
      Basically, most people with enough guns that they want to sell to justify renting a vendor space for a day are FFL holders and that is why you go to a gun show to buy a gun you have to do a background check.
      EDIT: I should also mention that getting an FFL is quite an in depth process. It takes months, with multiple background checks, and even a few in person interviews between yourself and ATF agents. Its not like its just some online check that anyone can obtain in an afternoon.

  • @adroitus

    Three things need to be addressed before licensing is acceptable:
    1) Cost: The licensing needs to be free, otherwise it becomes a de facto screen to exclude people with lower incomes from firearm purchases. 2) Transparency: Every citizen must be able to easily know why they were denied a license and appeal a denial. 3) Expediency: Authorities over licensing must be adequately staffed to administer all parts of the licensing process, otherwise licensing can be used as a de facto ban on gun ownership.

    How about I’ll trade you: once I’ve passed a more stringent licensing requirement and already own a bunch of guns, I get a TSA PreCheck-style express lane to buy guns as I want with no waiting period and reduced restrictions on common features. Because let’s be honest: the guy like me who’s already owned dozens of guns for decades responsibly isn’t who you need to worry about getting one more (he could use any other one in his possession for nefarious purposes if he was an actual threat anyway).

      @subjekt5577 День назад

      Yeah right now they make you get a license for every gun sale in Hawaii/Illinois and I'm sure many others
      Then there's states like WA which require you to duplicatively run the same background check every time you buy one and also have you take a firearms safety/education course in addition to the 10 day waiting period. You used to be able to skip the waiting period, which was only for handguns, if you had a concealed pistol license which requires fingerprinting and an enhanced background check, but instead they just do it every time now.
      Worst part in WA is, because of the language around the new AWB, it's actually causing more complete guns to be sold instead of just parts. You can't just buy a lower receiver anymore and swap the upper, now you gotta have entire complete firearms, which actually makes the "too many guns" problem worse.

We don't have to prove that we're the "right" kind of American before we can purchase a gun.

      The solution herein proposed is neither comprehensive nor reasonable.
      Licensing is not a "solution" because it simply addresses "impulse" purchasers, and only when you become initially licensed. Once issued, it no longer impacts the "impulse" purchaser, who may now "impulse" purchase to their hearts content. If the present background check system were better designed, managed and implemented, such that it was more regularly updated and with data from those various sources mentioned, it would accomplish the same thing as the licensing without the added wait time.
      I should add, that while the wait time could, in theory, temporarily keep guns out of the hands of individuals with criminal intent, for a short time, who have yet to prove themselves criminal, it is OVERWHELMINGLY more likely to temporarily keep guns out of the hands of responsible citizens who may be harmed as a result of them having to WAIT to receive a license for their firearm. A woman separated from an abusive spouse for example, may be in need of a firearm for her protection in a matter of days. Make her wait 3 weeks and it could cost her life. A new family moves into a rough neighborhood, robberies and burglaries are regular occurrences. They decide the situation is dangerous enough to warrant purchasing a firearm for the first time in their lives, for purely defensive purposes. They are forced to wait 3 weeks. Week 2 their house is broken into and they are shot and killed.
      There are two sides to this "wait time" nonsense. There are more law-abiding citizens than criminals, so "wait times" would disproportionately impact the ability of law-abiding citizens to defend themselves, over criminals obtaining arms to commit crimes.

    This is how it works in the UK. One added difference is that you need a use, so if you're a farmer for example then you have a use for a shotgun or rifle for pest control/hunting etc. It's a reliable system but the main problem might be that even when the laws were introduced in the UK (there were several mass shootings including in the 80s by someone with an AK47) few people really had guns, in the USA there are a lot of guns already in circulation so criminals will still be able to get them unfortunately. We still have shootings, there was one near where I live a few years ago where 6 people were killed, but overall the system is far more robust to find the bad apples and prevent their access to firearms.

  • @Sports-Jorge
    @Sports-Jorge 5 лет назад +80

    Ok let me clarify here:
    1. There are “Gun Dealers” and “Private Sellers”. In every State “gun dealers” must do background check for every sale (gun shows included). “Private Sellers” in MOST States, can sell to other people from the SAME State a firearm without a background check. So I’m from NJ and can’t buy a gun from “Private Seller” in NY..... Its THAT FREAKING SIMPLE TO UNDERSTAND! (This is the least restrictive version BTW because some states have a universal background check system and licensing.
    2. A licensing system has clearly been shown to reduce gun sales regardless of who wants to buy them and for what reason. It clearly is and has been used as a way to discourage the public in general from buying firearms. This is true in NJ, NY, MA, CA & DC as a bureaucratic tax to stop people from applying for licenses.
    - It costs more $, It takes hours of paperwork, it takes multiple trips to police departments, it sometimes takes days off of work, it usually takes weeks or months, and in NJ it even has an expiration date and must be done for every purchase of a firearm.
    The 2nd Amendment is a RIGHT, not a privilege. I am actually for a National Licensing System, but not if it is overly burdensome and abused by the government to limit and dissuade people from their right to own firearms, & eventually used to forcefully confiscate firearms certain politicians don’t like.

      Rights come from our creator and are imparted to us at birth. Getting a license to do something that our creator gave us a right to do in the first place makes the licensor into a false God. Thou shall have no other Gods before me. Exodus 20:3 The license turns a right into a privilege and is thus a blasphemy and idolatry ! A godless nation cannot remain free folks !!

      There are about 100,000,000 legal owners/operators responsible for about 2000 murders a year. Think of two circles in a Venn diagram. The illegal owners/operators do nearly all the killing while a tiny fraction of a huge number of people the rest. The rate of legal owners who commit murder is like 1 in 50,000. That means a full Yankee stadium of legal owners would produce a single murderer. This 'licensing' system, which will increase cost and time, and difficulty for the legal owners is restricting rights of millions to hopefully reduce this number.
      Unfortunately for this theory, the places that have relaxed licensing rules haven't seen increases in murders and have seen crime decrease.
