You mean a private sale.....dealers are required to do back ground checks; there is no "gun show loop hole"....what the Obama administration wants to regulate is private sales between individuals. More micro management of our lives......make a criminal out of an honest Joe if he trades his old shotgun for a set of golf clubs and doesn't do a background check on his buddy and file the necessary papers, fees and registrations forms !
It is bullshit; using regulations to make it difficult on the honest citizen.

If as you say you are an honest citizen what does a background check cost you?
An honest citizen would want to know for a fact that the hands he puts that gun in belong to another honest citizen!
And yes there is a "loop hole" I as a private seller can rent a spot at a gun show selling any legal guns to any guy that walks up with the cash and never do a background check on him.
