it's pretty simple - as a private citizen I don't know if you're Mother Theresa or the next Adam Lanza.

That doesn't answer the question. What you've said is that if I sell a firearm in a "public domain," I should use some kind of background check. You have not pointed out any relevant characteristic of a "public domain" on which to base requiring me to follow a different procedure in my sale than if I were selling a rifle out on a farm ("private domain").
