Just How Many People Get Guns Without a Background Check? Fast-Tracked Research
Here we go.... The anti's are going to "Gaslight" the 40% number now!
They are going to "fast track" the "research"
Dr. Deborah Azrael is anti-gun as they come. Just do a google search on her.
So someone calls you and is asking about firearms that you acquired and you are going to answer the question? You would never answer the question except for one reason and that reason is this so called "research"! At any cost they want the 40% number.............. and to prove many of the gun owners never go through a background check!!
Just How Many People Get Guns Without a Background Check? Fast-Tracked Research Is Set to Provide an Answer
http://www.thetrace.org/2015/10/priv...vard-research/
Amid the controversy, a team of Harvard researchers are fast-tracking a major update to this fundamental gun debate statistic. Pulling data from a forthcoming study on gun ownership conducted by the university’s Injury Control Research Center, the scholars have landed on a figure set to corroborate the earlier finding: Harvard’s Dr. Deborah Azrael tells The Trace that of 2,072 gun owners the researchers surveyed, roughly 40 percent said they’d acquired their most recent firearm (through a sale or transfer) without going through a background check.
Azrael was not ready to provide specific numbers, as the research is still being readied for formal release, and those figures will merit thorough examination once they are made public.
In total, she estimates Harvard’s findings translate to 20 million guns that have been obtained without a background check.In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. George Orwell

The every-day problem is armed robberies with handguns. There is no way those antis can begin to (much less want to) break down the categories of type of firearm, relationships of people on each side of the transfer, et cetera. It's a safe bet they aren't telling you they are counting a shotgun handed down from grandfather to son to son. Moreover, they probably are not bothering to break down guns used legally and guns used criminally. Their stats are beyond skewed.

Deborah Azrael, Ph.D., received her doctorate in health policy with a concentration in statistics and evaluative sciences. Dr. Azrael is Associate Director of the Harvard Youth Violence Prevention Center, and leads the Center’s collaboration with the City of Boston. As part of that work, Dr. Azrael has overseen development of a multi-tiered surveillance system designed to support city-wide policy planning and to allow multi-level analyses of neighborhood-level predictors of violence and injury-related outcomes for youth. Dr. Azrael is also a key member of the Injury Control Research Center’s firearms research program. Her recent work, with Drs. Miller, Hemenway and Hepburn, and Ms Barber, has focused on the relationship between access to firearms and homicide and suicide, as well as on evaluation of state gun lawsCorruption is the default behavior of government officials.

.
The claim that 40 percent of gun sales do not go through a federal background check is false and comes from a decades-old survey that has been widely debunked.

Re: Just How Many People Get Guns Without a Background Check? Fast-Tracked Research
The trouble with statistics and studies and reports is that they never cover everything and can always be used to bolster someone's opinion.
My business partner retired in Florida. He has bought several handguns without a background check - in Florida both rifles and handguns can be sold FTF for private sales. I can believe 40% or more of FLA sales are made without a background check. He lives in The Villages, a retirement community of over 50,000 and the way he describes it the place is one huge flea market on weekends. Someone dies or gets too old to shoot and all the guns he owns gets sold off from a folding table on the front yard.
Does that make it wrong???

Well, so what if it's 40 percent. I still don't get where I need the government's permission to purchase any firearm I choose from anyone I choose to purchase it from. Where in the Constitution is the footnote that says "shall not be infringed except for". Oh pardon me and my forgetfulness the Constitution no longer applies.

Noob, Ask Hector about his NFA Bulk Buy Deals of the Week, you can get full auto ghost guns with the 800 rounds per second clips by the dozen. Hector also sells those shoulder things that go up and barrel shrouds for your glocks. Thats what he has for sale in the back seat. Those glocks were probably police trade ins

Re: Just How Many People Get Guns Without a Background Check? Fast-Tracked Research
I really hope the number is higher, like way higher, close to 90% or something. I don't mean I hope they fudge the numbers to inflate it. I mean, I hope that is the actual number, 90% or so.
I have never submitted to a BGC for a long gun, and never will. I wish more people didn't.Sic semper tyrannis
