Go ahead and keep talking about things you know nothing about. Posting articles about the lack of federal guidelines is useless when it's a state issue.

I have bought a few guns here in NC. A shotgun from a pawn shop, a .45 from a gun shop and a .22 from a gun show. Every purchase required a picture ID, a background check and a 3 day waiting period at the two shops. The wait time at the gun show was an all day process. I don't have a CC permit but I know the process my husband went through. A 3 day class that included time at the range and the permit is issued by the sheriff's office after a background check.

See how that works? I know what I'm talking about, therefore, what I say is valid.

It's completely legal under federal law to buy a AR-15 from Bubba in a Walmart parking lot at 3 AM with cash and no paperwork.

Originally under the brady bill such purchases would have to be done at a local sheriffs office for the NICS check, but this was struck down by the courts due to it being an unfunded mandate.

If I sell my car on craigslist I sold my car online.Doesn't change if I deliver the car to them or if I have it delivered by someone else.

These semantics are a distraction from the fact that someone could get denied a gun at a FLL because of their background, then go online and find a private seller instead.

The current barrier to gun ownership is a 1 ft wall that you can just step right over. A minor inconvenience

Once again gun nuts lack criticial thinking.
