Toomey’s Compromise Requires Background Checks for Guns Sold in Publications

Washington DC - -(Ammoland.com)- Senator Pat Toomey’s (R-PA) background check ‘compromise’ expands background checks to cover not only gun shows and internet sales but also sales in print publications.

Section 122 of “The Public Safety and Second Amendment Rights Protection Act” states:

Beginning on the date that is 180 days after the enactment of this subsection…it shall be unlawful for any person other than a licensed dealer, licensed manufacturer, or licensed importer to complete the transfer of a firearm to any other person who is not licensed under this chapter, if the transfer occurs A) at a gun show or event, on the curtilage thereof, or B) pursuant to an advertising, posting, display or other listing on the Internet, or in a publication by the transferor of his intent to transfer, or of the transferee of his intent to acquire, the firearm. (emphasis added)

Once this bill is adopted, a classified ad in a publication–a newspaper or magazine for instance–which reads, “For Sale: Glock 19 9mm,” or a classified ad which reads, “Marlin Model 60 .22 rifle for sale,” would both follow under the purview of Toomey’s “compromise.”

Why does this even need a new law? I am sure if you it is not illegal now, we'll be reminded of a "print ad loophole" that needs to be close next year.

And yet he still has the balls to claim he is working for gun owners?

Traitor.
