https://www.wftv.com/news/9-investigates/9-investigates-legal-loophole-allowing-purchase-of-semi-automatic-rifle/743876387 ORLANDO, Fla. - Recent changes to state gun laws raised the minimum age to 21 for gun purchases with a three-day waiting period. But 9 Investigates discovered that there remains a legal loophole to obtain semi-automatic weapons without a background check. For several hundred dollars, anyone can buy one without a background check, no matter their age.
Lake County deputies helped 9 Investigates' Karla Ray assemble a "ghost gun," so named because it lacks a serial number, making it untraceable. "It's a legal means of obtaining a weapon," Lake County Detective James Getford said. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.' The right of the whole people, old and young, men, women and boys, and not militia only, to keep and bear arms of every description, and not such merely as are used by the militia, shall not be infringed, curtailed, or broken in upon, in the smallest degree; and all this for the important end to be attained: the rearing up and qualifying a well-regulated militia, so vitally necessary to the security of a free State. Our opinion is that any law, State or Federal, is repugnant to the Constitution, and void, which contravenes this right. [Nunn vs. State, 1 Ga. (1 Kel.) 243, at 251 (1846)] |
