Ft Collins, CO –-(Ammoland.com)- Bungling, anti-gun leftists/Marxists not popular in NV!
An enlargement of gun background checks that was narrowly passed by NV voters last month is now DRT! (dead right there)
“Private-party gun transfers,” even when temporary, were to be subject to federal background checks through NICS.
However, the FBI said they would not conduct checks required by the Act, because no one has stepped forward to say who is going to pay for them!
Nevada’s AG then said, “… citizens may not be prosecuted for their inability to comply with this Act unless and until the FBI changes its public position and agrees to conduct background checks consistent with the Act. Without this central feature, the Background Check Act cannot commence.”
And, state law prevents language of the Act from being changed/amended for three years.
Lesson:
Anti-gun initiatives/legislation is consistently misrepresented by its leftist promoters, due to their across-the-board, fundamental dishonesty.
They are not respectable people!
Under provisions of “private-party gun transfer” legislation:
> Gun manufacturers cannot conduct Armorer’s Courses for local police departments, because officers would have to touch guns they did not personally own!
> A CCW Course Instructor cannot allow students to try various guns, even for a few moments.
> A gun retailer cannot allow customers to handle any guns that are for sale, prior to buying them. In some states where such laws have been passed, this is ignored by retailers, but at a whim, they could all be thrown in jail!
> While he is away, a citizen cannot store his guns at a relative’s home.
No surprise that seedy criminals who promote this corrupt legislation never mention any of the foregoing! In NV at least, citizens’ right are safe, at least for now!
Like all good people, the next-to-the-last thing I ever want to do is to be compelled to defend my life, via gunfire, from violent criminals.
The absolute last thing I ever want to do is to discover that I am unable to effectively defend my life when attacked by violent criminals!
Smug, self-righteous politicians have their armed bodyguards (provided at taxpayer expense) The rest of us have only ourselves.
Forget that at your peril!

FBI need to do the same for ALL states that demand background checks for private party transfers.
Oldgringo,
Thank you for the insight. It’s always good to know the back story.
To answer some questions posted here about our Gov. Hickenlooper and how Colorado which once was a red state has switched to a blue state…I’ll try an make this as simple as possible…We now have a Democrat controlled state…how did it get this way from being a Republican dominated state…the same way our Gov. who is an out of stater who also hails from Pennsylvania came to Colorado bringing his leftist ideas with him…He connected with a lot of the east coast/west coast liberal minded individuals who had moved here to get away from the liberal states (dominated by wacky… Read more »
Perhaps I’m getting or have gotten soft in the head, but re all this business about background checks, the following question comes to mind. Criminals, being already barred from possession of firearms do not bother with or about these background checks. They obtain the weapons of their choice via sources different from those utilized by the law abiding. That said, how come the law abiding need government permission, that being what this background check is, in order to exercise a constitutional right. Could someone, anyone explain?
Have these Government officials lost there minds. This Gov should be removed from office.
The Colorado County Sheriff’s organization wanted to meet with Gov. John Hickenlooper to discuss why the Democrats bill for a Universal Criminal Background Check System was unenforceable…Gov. Hickenlooper refused to meet with the Country Sheriffs…he then went on to sign the bill into law…When asked by reporters why he signed the Universal anti-gun bill he stated that a staffer suggested “it would be a good thing to do”…Hence Gov. Hickenlooper’s staffers are now known to be passing Colorado laws while our Governor looks on.
Goes to show you, not all liberal loonies are from California.
And the governor was returned to office, wasn’t he, which says something, who knows what, of the voters of Colorado.
Alan,
I had no idea the Governor was reelected. That’s pitifully.
