yes, there is. you can call or name it anything you want. you can disagree with it also, but it does exist. someone who would never even attempt to buy a gun at a gunstore would seek a gunshow if he had malicious intentions. Private sales many times are with people who know you or with someone who knows someone who knows you. What I am getting at, is private sales are different then the gunshow loophole in my opinion. gunshow loophole law would heavily cutdown on guns getting in the wrong people's hands.
If they ban private sales at gun shows, private sales will just go underground. Hell, they already are- imagine how many guns were traded to prohibited parties for crack in this day alone.

The only thing you'll see is a surge in straw sales, which are almost impossible to prevent, unless the buyer/seller is just really stupid about it.
