The Indiana store is one of several Range USA locations that faced losing its license for breaking rules designed to deter illegal sales. Now the Trump administration is weakening penalties for failing to comply.
The only federal thing is an online check to see if your name says you can’t get a gun…
In a lot of states, there’s no waiting period, or anything else. It takes me personally about an hour to walk in and out with a gun.
But if I just wanted a gun ASAP, I could contact someone on an online forum specific to my area and procure a gun in the same amount of time without telling anyone even my first name.
In fact, the way the laws are set up, a seller getting any info is more risky legally speaking. Some people ask for a state ID to prevent the gun crossing state lines, but many don’t ask for that, because then they know the person’s name and if they’re a criminal a prosecutor may say they should have reasonably recognized the name.
Gun laws are essentially pointless because of that, however the solution is to close the loopholes not further de-regulation
