I'm not surprised. Just maybe there aren't that many private sales at gun shows.
I have never seen more than a couple dozen individuals peddling guns at gun shows, and they typically have high priced collector items or are asking considerable more than the guns are worth. Most of the sales by individuals that I have seen at gun shows were sales to vendors who presumably are licensed FFC holders.
Of course the news account completely dismissed this possibility in favor of the reporters biased opinion that gun owners are avoiding the instant check system for private sales. |

| Surveys of convicts show that very, very, few obtained their weapon at gun shows. |

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)] |
