White House officials are seeking a way to use executive authority to close the so-called gun show loophole that allows thousands of people to buy guns each year without a background check, but complicated legal issues have slowed the process.

“the so-called gun show loophole that allows thousands of people to buy guns each year without a background check”
In NC you get a back ground check on the spot at gun shows.
I know someone that bought a rifle in Cali at a gun show. It was at least 15 years ago. He had to wait weeks before he could go pick it up.
Also if any guns involved in mass shooting had been from gun shows we would hear it daily from media.
Remember, .44 and .45 are particularly vulnerable to being stopped by ballistic cloth.
Obama is lying, trying to pretend no terrorism on his watch, he is a dishonest ba*tard!
agreed !
(just as clarification, i did not refuse to vote against the Mormon... i felt he was probably a good man, just did not have the policies we really needed...so he wasn’t my first or second choice for the nomination...or third... but since he was the nominee, I supported him as being INFINITELY better than the IllegalInfiltratorInChief)
I would give anything to see someone shove Obama’s pen and phone up his skinny, Marxist ass.
I agree completely
I'm not trying to argue with you, but in my experience that isn't the case.
I know of guns being purchased on a "face-to-face" basis all the time. Hand the cash over, take the firearm, shake hands, go your way.
My FFL buddy and I were talking yesterday about a couple tables at our local gun shows where the sellers have a placard up that says ALL SALES FACE TO FACE CASH ONLY.
They aren't FFL buyers or sellers and they don't do any background checks. My buddy says it may be a gray area (or maybe it's not) but those guys are there every year, sale after sale.
Yes, as a seller if the weapon has any history you might want to go through the FFL.
Exactly. Those guys are not Federal Firearms Dealers and they are Americans selling their own private property. Which is what the government wants control of more than guns.
Good luck with that Barkey.
Don’t know if posted (so much to read on FR) but Barry’s Earnest spokesman said, “White House: Obama Thinks Gun Control Will Deter Terrorists”. (Blatantly a LIE Barack)
Good Lord will this Country survive?

Stupid? Evil? Both?
I’m not in the Executive Department so F him!
Silliness. Without registration this is absolutely unenforceable, a point that I'm sure will come up immediately after 0bama forces this through. But wait, nobody is talking about confiscation...except for a whole lot of people who are.
Well, do ya think they know what we have in mind for them?
