This provision alone would have me voting against the bill:

"Beginning on the date that is 180 days after the date of enactment of the Fix Gun Checks Act of
2013, it shall be unlawful for any person who is not licensed under this chapter to transfer a
firearm to any other person who is not licensed under this chapter, unless a licensed importer,
licensed manufacturer, or licensed dealer has first taken possession of the firearm for the purpose
of complying with subsection (s). Upon taking possession of the firearm, the licensee shall comply
with all requirements of this chapter as if the licensee were transferring the firearm from the
licensee’s inventory to the unlicensed transferee."

OK that is the bill.

They are trying to outlaw all private sales.


They allow private sales, but the gun has to be first transferred to a licensed dealer and then the
dealer has to go thru the hoops that he would if he were making a sale to the buyer.

What a pain in the ass. And, unless I were law abiding as hell, I'd probably just sell the gun to my
neighbor, or whomever, and forget all the **** (unless, of course, I'd already completed a 4473 on
the damn thing - then I'd be trapped).

Maybe the NRA's got the right idea after all.

Hell, many folks won't even have an ID, 'cause it's too onerous to obtain and would prevent them
from voting.
