    Hate to say it, but whenever you fill out the ol' 4473 and it is called in, the FBI doesn't have a clue what you are buying, let alone if you are buying one or five firearms. They are only checking your background to see if you are "legal" to purchase a firearm.

    Even after the background check is completed and approved, there are some individuals who decide not buy, for whatever reason. This is why the number of background checks ran does not meet the number of firearms sold.

    What no. 1 will cause is law abiding citizens to go to an FFL to call in to the FBI for a background check. I'm sure the FFL's will charge a fee, which the seller can tack on to the price of the firearm. What this will cause is MANY, MANY more calls, thus requiring more Feds on the other end of the line, thus requiring MO' MONEY from...

    you guessed it, those of us who pay taxes.

      AJ I think it will be assessed as a fee to the licensing process to source the funds at the driver. In CA we currently have a background check fee somewhere around $50 if I remember right. As costs rise so will the fees to match.

      I suspect the Concealed Permit folks will have the same background checks all over again with each renewal, so more money. Then additional police and school guards, more money, and on it goes. Think of it like an import tax on English Tea. When the tax was relatively low, nobody really complained much. But as the colonies grew and the British sent additional troops to police them, cost rose so did the tea tax. With the unsettling of the colonies because of unfair taxation they sent more police and raised taxes. Next thing you know some dumb colonist opens fire with his AK47 and the King gets all huffy about it.

        Who you calling DUMB?

        I already have to undergo abackground check when I renew. I got no issue with that myself. Currently my permit suffices for the background check.IF they make it so that all sales must go thru an FFL and my permit still qualifies that aint super bad BUT if they start reporting in on who bought what that is another thing altogether. AND I can purchase multiple firearms on one background check.
