Republicans need to take back the house in 2022 (at least), or we're 100% screwed....even though we pretty much are already.

HR-8 has passed the house and will pass the senate. This eliminates legal private sales by an individual
The dealers will be happy .

Does it require 60 votes in the senate? Will it get 60 votes?

I don't think they can get it through the Senate but you never know. I hope the Republicans never give 1 vote to anything proposed by the democrats.

Only in states that have gun registration. There's no way for them to police private sales in states that don't have registration, they don't know what guns you own or when you got rid of them.

You're not thinking this out...

If NICS ever does a trace request on a gun linked to you then you might get pinched.

"Joe the Gun Buyer" will squeal like a pig. Yep occifer, I bought this gat from Txhillbilly even though we knew we had to go through an FFL for transfer.

Greetings!

HR 8 and HR 1446 have passed the US House of Representatives.

HR 8 requires universal background checks for all transfers outside your immediate family, and HR 1446 enhances the scope of those background checks; it changes the law from a "Shall Issue" to a "May Issue" for the transfer of a weapon by the FBI.

By way of example, right now the FBI is required to give your FFL a response and that has to happen within a maximum of 3 days for a background check. Under this heinous bill, an FFL could wait up to a month to hear back from the FBI... or NOT AT ALL! As I understand it, there's no recourse for the buyer; you cannot contact the FBI to make an appeal directly. Therefore, you would have very limited recourse if this happens to you.

The summary of the bill and the text to HR 8 are here. https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/8

The summary of the bill and the text to HR 1446 are here. https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/1446

Please call US Senators Cruz and Cornyn and make your opinion known on these bills and also, if you are an FFL or know one, make sure they are calling too.

Senator John Cornyn's office can be reached at (202) 224-2934

Senator Ted Cruz's office can be reached at (202) 224-5922



Thank you so much for all your help!

Sent emails to both Cornyn and Cruz this morning requesting that they vote No on both of these bills.
