If I want to sell a gun because I need the cash, why should I have to wait because Uncle Sam can’t get his NICS act together? It’s not my fault the system is overloaded, for crying out loud. It’s not these gun stores’ fault either, so why are we allowing them to be punished for what seems to be a known problem? If you’re going to have a NICS system in the first place, make sure the blasted thing works when needed. gun banners know the NICS system crashes and yet they want it to crash some more
universal-bigger waste of time-designed to harass honest gun owners intrastate sales don't implicate commerce clause jurisdiction either
No they aren't. The vast majority of guns in the hands of criminals come from straw purchases, corrupts FFLs and theft. None of these are affected by UBCs.
that's what the gun banners claim in reality its to placate the yapping sheeple who want something done and set the stage for a push towards universal registration
As opposed as I am to background checks to begin with, I am satisfied with the NICS - my only poor experience when buying a gun the day after Christmas and had to wait 2 hours for the system to process the backlog. I fully oppose universal background checks - their only purpose is to create an excuse for universal registration.
Background checks is what the anti-gunners want. No harm no foul. So let's just give it to them. It did not stop Adam Lanza. It did not stop the Vegas shooter. It did not stop the San Bernardino terrorist pair either. But let them have it. All they want.
it is a waste of time. its designed to placate the sheeple and create a demand for registration-something gun banners like you dream of
