How about a notarized affidavit signed by both parties....That will be just as good a transfer..
Yep 100% check system would be unenforcable unless it was so invasive that it would be totally unacceptable. I do think checks at gun shows and auctions would be possible. Problem is dirtbags would find some where else to get firearms.
This is a popular sentiment but makes no sense if you read the second amendment and related case law. The right to bear arms is not absolute and can and should be regulated.
The right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. That's pretty damn absolute. Just because lawyers, politicians, and the courts have bastardized it doesn't mean the right isn't absolute. Lawyers, politicians, and the courts once deemed certain people to be less than a person. They can and frequently are wrong.
Says you and 5 or 6 men and women that wear black robes to feel imperial. That does not make it right or worth giving up. It is however the current law.

The only idea I've heard that I like are special state issued DL or ID's that are clearly marked for those ineligible to buy or possess a firearm to be identified.
You all are correct....mass murderers should be allowed to buy guns and anyone with enough $$$ should be able to purchase or build a nuke.
Do you pinky swear promise?

It was sarcasim dude....I just got the "shall not be infringed" lecture a few posts ago.
It's already illegal to buy a gun and then commit a crime with it.
It's illegal to buy a car and then commit a crime with it as well. It's illegal to commit crimes, already with anything.
In countries with extreme gun control, like UK, the violent crime rate is WAY higher than the USA. 5 times higher in the UK than the USA. What makes you think that restricting law abiding good people from purchasing useful tools like guns or cars will stop criminals from committing crimes?
In fact the opposite, it will encourage criminals to commit more crimes. Consider the crime of mass shootings. There is a reason why mass shootings are successful in gun-free zones like at Newtown, but fail in areas where a good person with a gun stopped the shooting, like in the Oregon mall.
Consider Reading : "More guns, less crime", by Dr. John Lott, for starters.
