[Bloody Sam Roberts]

Under Obama’s proposed executive fiat, dealers who sell more than an arbitrary number of guns will need to obtain a license from the ATF and perform background checks on consumers.

Holy crap....they already do!

O is using the term “dealer” to mean anyone who sells any number of guns for profit. We all now that a “dealer” in firearms must have a FFL. Contrary to some ignorant BS I have been reading in the media only licensed dealers can sell new guns. New guns come from the manufacturer, to a distributor and then to a FFL dealer. Each step is documented and traceable by the ATF to that first retail customer. Now, I used to explain this to my customers. If they transfer that gun to someone else and it is used and recovered in a crime, guess what? There is going to be a loud knock on their door and some explaining to be done. In my opinion it is not smart to dispose of that firearm that you bought new to someone with no questions asked.
