How about starting background checks on alcohol or tobacco. The other 2/3 of the unholy trinity.
Those are both controlled and regulated by the government and kill thousands of people every year.

I would think in Texas you could do it where anyone that has a CHL can sell to another individual with a CHL. There should maybe be a clause added to the CHL law that you can buy/sell/trade fire arms privately and not for business with a CHL. If you have a CHL you have already passed a more extensive background check than the NICS system anyway.


This would probably prompt a lot more people to get CHL's which is a good thing. Would also do away with the sketchy people that can't pass a background check or can't get a CHL going on the internet and meeting up with someone to buy a gun. This would ensure that everyone that buys/sells guns FTF have passed an extensive background check every 5 years.


Still unaceptable


Why would showing your CHL when buying a gun from an individual unacceptable? You show your driver license to buy beer and cigs, but you can't be troubled to show your CHL when buying a gun?

Since I am an FFL, I see a lot of behind the scenes that other people don't see. As an FFL, we have tons of paperwork for new firearm transfers while completing a background check. Once the original buyer wants to sell it, he can sell it to anyone he wants- criminal or non-criminal, ANYONE. Take the most recent tragedy, the San Bernandino shooting. The guy sold his AR's to his neighbor/friend, the 2 muslims, that killed the 14 people. If the original buyer was required to complete a transfer to the 2 muslims, who knows if the 2 muslims would have passed that or not. But it wouldn't have been as simple as handing over money to get the AR's. It's a borderline straw purchase. How do you not see this as a problem!!

I have asked my ATF agents why there are no regs for background checks after the initial sale. They had no answer.

I also have a problem with individuals who "sell guns" as income and do it as a business, with no FFL. They buy guns from people, and sell them for a profit. But they don't carry the FFL that's required. They don't complete any background checks on the buyers. They don't pay any taxes on their sales. How is this a bad thing?

I have spoken to several FFL's and 2 class 3 dealers now about this new EO. All but 1 said this is not such a bad deal. 2 of us were all on board with it. I think if you really look into what this is, you may understand it more. I'm not saying I agree with Obama at all. But something like these regs has been needing to happen for a while. The next question is how will they pay for it, implement it, and figure out the logistics of this.


yes you are saying you agree with it that is all you have said from the beginning (I guess you would vote for your guy again- I have voted straight Republican ticket since I could vote, just FYI). you continue to repeat yourself that you are willing to give up more and more of the publics freedoms because you might make an extra dollar. that is the only reason i have been able to find for your post. F that! I've already said doing transfers is a PITA. I'm an 01 FFL because I have to be. I take possession of some firearms for my ammunition business, which requires me to have the 01 FFL. I already said I don't promote my 01 FFL and do transfers. So, that reasoning is 100% incorrect. If you understood the inner workings a little more FFL's and what goes on behind the scenes, it might be a little enlightening.

explain to me how this will keep guns out of the hand of criminals that want a gun, if no one will sell them one they will steal one. you are all for limiting the freedoms of the lawabiding while doing nothing to stop the criminals. You are 100% correct. Will it stop 100% of criminals- No, not at all. Will it possibly limit the availability of firearms to certain people who should not have them- YES!!!! You go through a TSA screening at the airport, right. It helps keep banned items from coming aboard a flight (most of the time, but that's another debate also!) Same principal with a background check. Yes, it is an inconvenience, but is it worth this inconvenience for possibly keeping certain criminal or unfit individuals from a firearm, IMO, yes!

you want to make a change, set a group not allowed to purchase or possess firearms (oh wait already been done) and set penalties for violations ( oh thats been done too) enforce those laws (thats what needs to be done)


My replies are in red


wow just wow
i dont believe it matters how ya vote it matters how ya live and if you are willing to follow a law that limits the freedoms of a free people it speaks volumes.
you will never convience me or most others on here how horrible ffl's have it if it was that bad no one would do it and most of us have either been,worked with or befriended ffl's. like most other things if you stay on top of the paperwork and keep your records organized it aint that hard.
yes the tsa is a different subject but since you brought it up, lets go there. No one in this country has the freedom to fly so yes those that wish to fly will accept the tsa (which is a freaking joke) those of us that do not wish to accept it as myself will not fly pretty simple. but since my forefathers 200+ years ago did not gaurantee me the freedom to fly shall not be infringed oh well. The last time i stepped off a plane was coming home from deployment, TSA didnt check us then either.

I am sorry you are so willing to accept the loss of your personal freedoms.

have a nice day and remember as John Wayne stated

Splitting the party (gun owners) is how they will manage to restrict everything.

Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

What freedom loss? There is no loss. The loss is to the people who shouldn't have a firearm to begin with! That's their loss for being a criminal. I stay clean so I have my freedoms intact, and passing a simple background check will not impede my freedoms one bit, or anyone else's. If others are criminals, they lose their freedoms. That's why we have a prison system!

Where did I say FFL's have it bad? I think you are assuming way too much here.

I'm not saying that a CHL would be required to buy a gun you could still go into a gun store and do an NICS check. I'm saying a CHL is an easy indicator that the person has passed an extensive background check, paid his taxes, has no felonies, pays his child support, and so on.

Fine lets not do the CHL how about a "background check card". You do a one time background check and you get a card in the mail and it is good for 5 years just like the CHL. You can use that background check card to buy/sell/trade FTF with other individuals, no card you must do the transfer at an FFL. In 5 years you'll have to re-certify your background check card same as CHL. They run another extensive background check on you and reissue a new card good for 5 years. Same as with the CHL you must report any changes like change or residences and so on. If you fail to do it your card will be suspended. Pretty much same rules as the CHL. You could even use these in gun stores to bypass the NICS check same as CHL. Also there will be no gun registry or paper trail because you'll still be doing FTF deals and buying/selling/trading with individuals you'll just have a concrete way of telling whether or not a person is legal to own a gun or not. Pretty simple stuff here.

Its like an instant background check in your pocket... I better patent this [censored].. LOL

Chad, the selling joints example was a little out of line.

If I sell one or 2 guns a year, I'm not a dealer. Just like if I sell one or 2 antiques a year, I'm not a antiques dealer.

Background checks are just that. A review of the past. They have little bearing on the future.

I think the SB shootings just proved that.

That is why the more the government steps in, the more they infringe on law abiding citizens liberties.
Look what is happening in CA with the preemptive confiscations based on little more than a police report.

To say no liberty has been lost is to overlook the liberty stolen by NFA and GCA68. This is all just a warmup and letting out the clutch to get things moving. The throttle ain't been touched. Yet.

I really have to wonder about anyone who fears other people's freedom.

I am probably going to get beat to mush on this, but here I go. I think that background checks should be in place to keep a gun out of the hand of some gangbanger wanna be, or some crazy that's going to shoot up a mall or school, or whatever is in their demented mind. I don't know how you would be able to resale a gun to your buddy or some stranger that reaches out and buy's what you post in a classified ad since there isn't a background check for those.

I'm sorry if I don't understand all of the discussion, so when you reply please educate and explain the point, not beat up on me for not knowing everything about gun laws. I do know that when you travel out of state, you had better know the laws of the states your going to be in or traveling thru so you stay out of trouble.

so it would be acceptable to registar the person rather than the gun, i think the germans did that to the jews and we know how that turned out.

There was not and are not "loopholes at a gun shows". If you purchased a gun at a gun show from a vendor you still went through a back ground check. Why does this statement keep coming up.

My point is this on this whole topic. There should be more checks and balances for firearm sales/transfers from individual to individual. Is this EO the correct way to do it? I don't think so. There needs to be something done. What needs to be done and how it needs to be done, I do not know. I do know that the way it is now is very loose, and rules are currently not enforced, so it's very easy to acquire a firearm. Do I think this EO will hold up in the long run. No. Probably much less so than the Bill Clinton Assault Weapons Ban.

background checks are alreay in place. if im a "gangbanger" and i want a gun would i not lie on the paperwork or steal one from a vehicle or house or find one of my buddies to give me one. any person that wants a gun will find a way to get a gun with or without a check.

I don't know how you would be able to resale a gun to your buddy or some stranger that reaches out and buy's what you post in a classified ad since there isn't a background check for those. Closing the loophole at a gun show should be no different than buying it from a gun shop,

this one always makes me laugh what gunshow loophole a licensed ffl has to do the same thing at a gun show that he must at his place of business. and a private party may sale to a person same as they could out side of a gunshow.

and if you can't get on a plane because your on the no fly list, then you shouldn't be able to buy a gun either,

why is the person on the no fly list?

but how and who will do the testing for the insane person that buys it?

define insane? this will be a trouble spot are you insane if you ever seen a shrink? that would depend on the shrink to decide if you are "in the right mind to be trusted" i hope i never have to have people make decisions on my behalf.

I'm sorry if I don't understand all of the discussion, so when you reply please educate and explain the point, not beat up on me for not knowing everything about gun laws. I do know that when you travel out of state, you had better know the laws of the states your going to be in or traveling thru so you stay out of trouble.


hope i didnt beat up on ya.

As an individual, you can buy a table at a gun show for about $20-$40 to sell whatever you want for the weekend. If you buy firearms to sell or have "your personal collection", you can sell them to whomever walks up with money in hand. This individual is not an FFL, and there is no paperwork or background check done to know that the person you are selling it to has the right to own or possess a firearm. What this EO is wanting to do, is if you are "in the business of dealing guns" (which has not been fully defined yet) is requiring a background check, which will require the seller to be a dealer.

Also, as an individual, you can bring your own firearm and walk around with it to find a buyer. It's a simple cash transaction, no paperwork or background check.

Yes, there are some FFL's at gun shows. But there are a lot of transactions that happen with a simple cash transaction.

you are correct

explain to us how this is a loop hole? the "gunshow Loophole" the PO(TU)S referances and the anti gun folk info pushed out to the masses is that there are no background checks done at a gun show, which is false. those required to do them do them to remain in good standing with the licensing agency.

I am sorry i almost feel like i am picking on you, but really.

at one time you could walk into a store buy a gun and walk out w a reciept being the only paperwork completed even for a machine gun, this should never have changed. our 2nd amendment right have slowly been chipped away and i refuse to surrender any more of my freedoms for govt control. If we were not such a p###sy whipped country this topic would never be an issue but there is a class of people out there that believe if you limit peoples rights you can stop bad people from doing bad things. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but it does not work that way.

I think its a liberal misnomer like "Assault Rifles". The "gunshow loophole" and "internet sales" they're speaking of are individuals walking around a gunshow with a personal firearm trying to find a buyer. The internet sells they're talking about are just like in the classifieds here or facebook or TGT and so on. You find a gun on the internet, then meet up for a FTF deal no background check is done in either situation.

I don't know how you would be able to resale a gun to your buddy or some stranger that reaches out and buy's what you post in a classified ad since there isn't a background check for those. Closing the loophole at a gun show should be no different than buying it from a gun shop, and if you can't get on a plane because your on the no fly list, then you shouldn't be able to buy a gun either, but how and who will do the testing for the insane person that buys it? I'm sorry if I don't understand all of the discussion, so when you reply please educate and explain the point, not beat up on me for not knowing everything about gun laws. I do know that when you travel out of state, you had better know the laws of the states your going to be in or traveling thru so you stay out of trouble.


Did you read my recent post??

Will also add that no fly lists are for folks that have been deemed a future risk. So should you be restricted of a constulitutional right because of something you have done or something that someone feels you might do? Which right should that be applied to??

As an individual, you can buy a table at a gun show for about $20-$40 to sell whatever you want for the weekend. If you buy firearms to sell or have "your personal collection", you can sell them to whomever walks up with money in hand. This individual is not an FFL, and there is no paperwork or background check done to know that the person you are selling it to has the right to own or possess a firearm. What this EO is wanting to do, is if you are "in the business of dealing guns" (which has not been fully defined yet) is requiring a background check, which will require the seller to be a dealer.

Also, as an individual, you can bring your own firearm and walk around with it to find a buyer. It's a simple cash transaction, no paperwork or background check.

Yes, there are some FFL's at gun shows. But there are a lot of transactions that happen with a simple cash transaction.


you are correct

explain to us how this is a loop hole? the "gunshow Loophole" the PO(TU)S referances and the anti gun folk info pushed out to the masses is that there are no background checks done at a gun show, which is false. those required to do them do them to remain in good standing with the licensing agency.

I am sorry i almost feel like i am picking on you, but really.

at one time you could walk into a store buy a gun and walk out w a reciept being the only paperwork completed even for a machine gun, this should never have changed. our 2nd amendment right have slowly been chipped away and i refuse to surrender any more of my freedoms for govt control. If we were not such a p###sy whipped country this topic would never be an issue but there is a class of people out there that believe if you limit peoples rights you can stop bad people from doing bad things. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but it does not work that way.


The loop hole is that not everyone goes through the back ground check process, whether at gun shows, face to face, on-line (and yes you can buy a rifle (not a handgun) in Texas on-line without going through an FFL and have it shipped to you directly with no background check or paperwork). If you are an FFL, the paperwork and background check are verified. If you are an individual, or an individual "dealing in firearms" that does not have an FFL, there is no paperwork or background check completed on the buyer. There are many "gun dealers" at gun shows, on-line, and/or are in the business of selling guns that are not FFL.
