A quiet bipartisan effort on gun background checks may have a path to a deal (yahoo.com)

What we're trying to protect, or carve out, are the hobbyist and or casual transactions between friends and family members, but capture the people who literally are making a living and making a profit selling firearms

So they’re clarifying who needs to get a FFL.  I’ll be honest this seems to make sense.  

We have it... it's called a NICS check... What "they" really want is a registry ala the Weimer Republic.

And we ALL know what happened to that Weimar firearm registry after January 1933.

Only way you to that is to track sales. Can't do that in a parking lot with cash.

Gun control on the national level has been a losing issue for dems since the Clinton AWB, (republicans took back the house shortly after that passed). 

Local state tyrants like Murphy can get away with it because of one party rule via a third world peasant electorate who enjoy being disarmed.

The only way we'll have more gun control at the federal level is if some republicans vote for it to provide cover to the democrats, by executive order or by admistrative change. The dems need that cover. The sad part is that the repubs won't do anything to advance the gun rights either.

For a brief period of time during the Obama years the dems had 60 votes in the senate plus the majority in the house and didn't pass any anti gun legislation.

and doing it by eo or by administrative change are both constitutionally illegal.

And would cause a reaction unlike any other seen since the days of Concord and Lexington.
