Unreported income for dealers? Seriously, lamarw....

An FFL dealer does not have the legal option NOT to conduct the check. He is required to use the 4473 and NICS.

A private seller, so far as I know, does not need to report the sale of personal property that is not used as part of a business. For the most part, I suspect private sellers often as not sell at a loss, in any case.

Edit: Speaking of "jeopardizing my rights," I have noticed a general pattern that this go-around, shooters who like EBRs and higher capacity magazines are looking at background checks as a sacrifice fly to protect their own interests.

We need to stand together as gun owners and refuse a renewed AWB, capacity ban, and background checks.
