Yes all sales do not require a background check. That is true. Now if I said, All sales do require a background check. Now that is false. If all sales required a check I couldn't sell you a gun without a check. Do you have trouble reading?
so here in ny we have this new lib law called the safe act. its supposed to make ny'rs safer, eliminate deadly assault weapons, register all existing guns. register all ammo sold. so lets look at the reality. they estimated there were 300,000 assault style weapons in NY. 30,000 were registered. so much for braindead liberal assumptions everyone would obey the law. so now you have all these people who own guns but don't want to go through the hassle of registering them, don't want to be on some government list, but don't wan to be outside the law. so what have they been doing? well selling their guns. to anyone, anywhere. at garage sales. in parking lots. guns, ammo, large capacity mags. no background checks, no record of who owns them, hopefully no adam lanzas have been out shopping. yea, real safe. well ny has already spend millions on trying to build a database to track ammo sales. guess what? no luck. so that ain't being done either. guess what else? ammo shops are poping up all over in non communist bordering states like PA, VA, NH. you can get all the ammo you want. pick up some fire works while you're at it. and no more assault style weapons for sale anymore. well not at a legitimate gun shop who will check and register your weapon. but black market sales are sure on the rise. no background checks necessary, so registrations, no records of sales. new york is probably less safe than ever. but liberal pinheads have their do nothing law. law abiding citizens take another one up the ass and criminals go about their business as usual.
