I can imagine the FEDs going for something like title to a vehicle, to show ownership and transfer.

I won't comply.

[TigersEye]

Why is there any deal on 'background checks?' We already have a national system of background checks called NICS that every single FFL holder must use for every firearms transfer.

How stupid, how corrupt, how evil are these politicians? Is Coburn just another Pubbie running cover for these commie usurpers?

[JimRed]

Even a simple background check is an infringement. If they can’t be trusted to own and carry weapons, what are they doing running around loose?

[cripplecreek]

No deal PERIOD.

If you’re always on the defense, its because you’re always losing.

[SeminoleCounty]

Coburn just another spineless Liberal RINO.....ready to compromise

[GeronL]

even if they agree not to keep the records they will keep the records

[zerosix]

Tom Coburn - it should be NO DEAL on gun control - period!

Back up and try "criminal control, period!"

Without criminals running amok, totting guns and some modest proposals for, say security officers in schools, with guns AND bullets on colleges and universities, would go a very long way on keeping down idiots who determine to take out their entire class or schools for that matter because.......you make up their reasons.

[zerosix]

Nope! I don't trust this government (or any other, for that matter) with more access to "records of purchases of guns" so that they know exactly whom to target when they're ready to confiscate any and all guns!

This government will NOT do anything to take criminals off the streets yet claim that we don't "need" guns for protection.

Actually, I trust petty criminals more than I trust the government anymore.

No way, letting the camel get more of its nose under the tent and we'll have the entire gun control camel in our living rooms soon.

[Red in Blue PA]

Lie. Defy. Do not comply.

[grobdriver]

if Democrats demand that records of private gun sales be kept, the compromise is dead.

SCREW THIS!
NO "COMPROMISE"!
NO NEW GUN LAWS!

Now where's muh phone... this Coburn a$$wipe is going to get a piece of my mind.

[i_robot73]

How is not a tax/stamp (ala Poll tax) Constitutional? What other Right(s) require gov’t approval (aka, those aren’t Rights) to utilize?

Hey media! Can you, or the dipshits writing these ‘laws’, tell me how this will reduce gun crime??

[NewHampshireDuo]

All of my future private transactions will have happened in the past.

The “gun show loophole” - isn’t. (Ever notice that “loopholes” only appear in laws that block the liberal agenda?) It was specifically added to the 1968 Gun Control Act as an escape value to prevent a national gun registration/confiscation list. That’s why the Democrats have, ever since, been trying to expand the check.

If all they are concerned with is your criminal/mental history, why do they want the serial number, caliber and type of firearm? (Schumer wants a 4473 for EVERY transaction.)

The elephant in the living room is that if every law-abiding citizen has to get government clearance before buying a firearm, what’s to prevent obama, et al from declaring a “National Emergency” (real or bogus) and shut down the background checks for “public safety”? Ergo, a total ban on gun transfers. Those naive people who believed the police would protect them and didn’t arm themselves will find out the penalty the hard way.
