Title: Gun Show Loophole
Post by: Lumspond on February 09, 2011, 08:47:54 PM

Driving home from work, heard a clip on WDEL of Governor Markell stating he wanted to "close the gun-show Loophole this year, and expected a second amendment fight".
What Loophole? Purchasing at a gun-show is the same as a gun shop. They call the Feds and state for a background check. I think Markell is trying to add a waiting period for all gun purchases. Time to email his office!!

The idea is to ban private sales without a background check... whether only at gun shows, or everywhere, I'm not sure.
