I meant that the proposed law would have no gain to anyone.
No, you got busted for babbling like an ignorant lout and now you're trying to salvage your pride with more stupid assertions, because YOU cannot provide ANY LEGAL PROPOSAL made that would result in what you say. In short, you again try to pass off your supposition and conjecture as fact.
Got that bunky? If so, then you'll understand that a background check is done by REGISTERED gun salesmen.
You don't say? Damn, and here I thought my FFL was just so I could throw money away. Thanks for the lovely education on the matter.
Given the sheer stupidity and ignorance of your statements coupled with your intellectual dishonesty, one has serious doubt to your FFL claim at all.
What you are describing is what goes on between individuals...of which there is no federal law against.
And the proposed bill was going to eliminate that, buy calling private sales which were specifically exempted from being allowed an NICS check, a loop hole.
But the law does not exist now and is SEPARATE from the background check proposal...something YOU keep confusing.
Which is one of the contributing factors to guns ending up on the black market being picked up and used by criminals.

Which is why there was a push to have those "trade shows" be put in the same category as your local weapons shop
They already are. If an FFL sells a gun, they have to do a background check. Doesn't matter where it's sold.
Except registries don't do that. At all. Ever. Anywhere. They're wastes of money with immense potential for abuse and absolutely no gain (when it comes to fighting crime).
Stop lying.
Uhhh yes it would. It would mean I, a legal gun owner, could not sell my own legal private property to another legal individual. I'd have to have a FFL do it for me (yes, I am an FFL in this case, but that's irrelevant). And if I, as a private citizen, try to call the NICS number to perform a background check, it's a felony.
