Unlicensed dealers are already breaking the law, making this fundamentally a law enforcement problem, NOT the result of any so-called loophole.
Also, I don't necessarily agree with every rhetorical position that the NRA takes either, but given that elements in the press already blame the organization for gun crime in general, Columbine, Sandy Hook, Trayvon Martin, and possibly global climate change*, can you really blame the NRA for failing to embark on a quixotic campaign to stamp out this problem?
