I have to say that this reminds me of the mess that is going on with ACORN.
I have gone to a gun show in Chantilly, VA and bought two guns (that was categorized as a trade). I do not know if the person that I bought the guns from was a private seller or a dealer. I gave him my two broken guns, and, he sold me two used guns. I did not do a background check (I may have, but, I don't recall doing so), but, I had to show him my driver'slicense and my car registration (now that I think of it, I believe it was a gun dealer that I dealt with). It was a pleasant experience. Yeah, I do believe I had to do a background check (this happened several years ago, so please forgive me). I had to see someone who completed both forms (State and Federal) and I had to sign and date them.
My point is Bloomy makes it seem like all gun shows are corrupt. Maybe if they would issue carry permits in NYC, this issue would not matter (just a thought). But then there would only be people who are law abiding citizens, that may not be able to afford a carry permit (for whatever reason), be discriminated against when they want to purchase a handgun at a gunshow.
I have sold two guns to VA citizens who I reasonably believed were not criminals. There are going to be people that will do thewrong thing no matter what. That is just the way it is. Everyone should not be punished becauseof a few bad apples!! Bloomy would make you believe that everyone is corrupt, which is :cuss:!! OK, I amdone venting!!:what:
