I was wondering about that myself. It certainly does not seem likely the background checks would only apply to gun shows. If it did there would be nothing to stop me from stepping off the gun show property to complete the transaction. Dealers could not do this, but as we all know dealers selling at gun shows are already required to run background checks. I also read that checks would apply to internet sales. Which, as far as I know, already require a background check. The record keeping requirement for any FFL running the check is maintained. It appears this is just an effort to wrap the same bill up in a new box.
