NO! Private intrastate sales/transfers should not be forced through NICS or FFL or any other federal "one size fits all" solution, whether at a Gun Show out of the back of a pickup truck, or grandpa giving me his WWII bringback Luger. For one, because it is unconstitutional federal intrusion on a state prerogative....yeah yeah...that ship has sailed...GCA 1968...GFSZA....etc. etc. I don't care. It is an UNCONSTITUTIONAL INTRUSION by the federal government. Another reason....because it wouldn't do any good. None of the mass shootings in the last 20 years would have been prevented by this. So what is the argument for it? Frankly, how many shootings of any kind have been prevented by NICS since 1997? The FBI will give statistics like 100,000 blocked sales....blah...blah...the vast majority of them are false positives, or people that didn't know they were prohibited. If not so, then why hasn't ATF prosecuted all the blocked sales? Fewer people are killed by rifles every year than hammers, and fewer of those by magazine fed semi-autos. SO what problem are we solving here? Giving political cover to Peter King (RINO-NY)?
NO private transfer restrictions.
NO semi-auto rifle "feature" bans.
NO magazine capacity restrictions.
NO waiver of due process ("red flag").
NO more loss of rights for convicted misdemeanants (if the crime is serious enough to warrant a suspension of gun rights, it ought to be a felony).
NO further federal restrictions of any kind.
