Gangs traffic illegal guns. Guns will never go away. The government tried to make drugs of abuse illegal, and drug use only got worse. I reckon the same would happen with guns.

There is no such “loophole.” Federal Firearms Licensees (FFLs), i.e. licensed gun dealers, are required by law to conduct a federal background check whether they sell a gun at a gun show (as many such dealers do), or in their brick-and-mortar store.

What you really want to do is ban private individuals from selling their guns to other private individuals. That’s not a “loophole,” it’s conduct that has been legal under federal law since the time of our founding.

We already have decently strict background checks that take 10 days to complete and have psychiatry tests that are in a lot of the states. The gun show loophole allows almost anybody to buy a gun and walk out with a very small background check.
