Nearly 40 percent of gun transactions in America occur through private party sales.
I think they should either do back ground checks on virtually all transactions or stop doing them all together because now they are just an inconvenience to honest people.
I think you need to verify that statement; 40% would mean that 200 million guns changed hands through private sales in the last year. There were 300 million sold through FFL dealers in the last year so show me where you got that number.
n May 1997, the National Institute of Justice, an arm of the U.S. Justice Department, published the results of a survey that concluded approximately 60 percent of gun acquisitions involved FFLs,
Even if it is only half that number it would be millions of transactions.
