\"Gun-Control
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (Photo: Pelosi\/Facebook<\/em>).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, that didn\u2019t take long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just a week or so after their introduction<\/a>, the House of Representatives passed two key pieces of gun-control legislation: H.R. 8<\/a> and H.R. 1446<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bipartisan Background Checks Act (H.R. 8) is a universal background check bill that would criminalize private transfers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meaning, sales or transfers between anyone who is not immediately related would be outlawed.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In order to transfer or sell a firearm lawfully to another individual, the transaction would have to be facilitated via a Federal Firearms Licensee (FFL).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The FFL would run a background check on the prospective buyer (or transferee).\u00a0 Many FFLs charge fees for running background checks.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Failure to comply could result in criminal prosecution for both buyer and seller.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis is the moment to act on gun safety, and that starts with background checks on all guns sales,\u201d said Shannon Watts, founder of Moms Demand Action, in a press release obtained by GunsAmerica. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur grassroots army of nearly six million supporters is proud to stand behind Speaker Pelosi, Rep. Thompson, and gun safety champions in the House as they pass this bill with bipartisan support and overwhelming support from the American people,\u201d she continued. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Enhanced Background Checks Act of 2021 (H.R. 1446) would close the so-called \u201cCharleston Loophole\u201d by eliminating the policy that a firearm can be transferred to an individual if the FBI has not completed a background check within three days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bill gives the FBI a full 10 business days to complete a background check that has been delayed. Once those 10 days are up, a prospective buyer can petition for \u201cescalated review to spur the FBI to complete its investigation.\u201d  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sale may proceed if the escalated review has not been completed within an additional 10 business days, allowing the FBI to delay without reason a person\u2019s Second Amendment rights for a full four weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe could have addressed this deadly loophole years ago, but then-Majority Leader Mitch McConnell stood with the NRA to block this bill from ever getting a vote on the Senate floor,\u201d Watts said in reference to H.R. 1446. \u201cFortunately, there\u2019s a new majority in the Senate \u2013\u2013 and we look forward to working with that majority to pass this bill into law.\u201d \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gun-rights groups were quick to condemn the news.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cChuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi have never met a gun control proposal they didn\u2019t immediately want to take to bed. Given the chance, they will rape our gun rights,\u201d said Alan Gottlieb, the founder of the Second Amendment Foundation<\/a> in an email to GunsAmerica. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mark Oliva, the director of public affairs for the National Shooting Sports Foundation<\/a>, offered a warning for what universal background checks portend: a national firearms registry. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cH.R. 8 does nothing to address the criminal misuse of firearms, but would put every law-abiding gun owner on a federal gun registry which is currently forbidden under federal law,\u201d he told GunsAmerica.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe firearm industry has grave concerns about our customers being profiled on government watchlists for simply exercising their fundamental Second Amendment right to purchase a firearm,\u201d Oliva said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everytown for Gun Safety has repeatedly stated that background checks on all gun sales are its \u201ctop legislative priority.\u201d\u00a0 While it won\u2019t publicly admit it, the truth is that universal background checks will be unenforceable and ineffective without a nationwide gun registration requirement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gun-rights advocates know this and gun-control advocates know this because (a) it\u2019s plainly obvious (b) Democratic lawmakers recently introduced<\/a> national gun licensing and registration legislation (H.R. 127<\/a>), and (c) the Obama administration told us so in a government-funded analysis titled, \u201cSummary of Select Firearm Violence Prevention Strategies<\/a>,\u201d authored by NIJ Deputy Director Greg Ridgeway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The \u201cTwitter Summary\u201d from the document reads as follows (emphasis added<\/em><\/strong>), \u201cUniversal Background Checks: Effectiveness depends on the ability to reduce straw purchasing, requiring gun registration<\/em><\/strong> and an easy gun transfer process.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plainly stated, outlawing private transfers and giving the government more latitude to delay one\u2019s fundamental right to keep and bear arms are only the tip of the iceberg of what the anti-gun Left has in store for the 2A. \u00a0As Shannon Watts confessed, this is where it “starts…”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both bills now head to the Senate where Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) has promised to bring them up for a vote. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“H.R. 8 will be on the (Senate) floor and we’ll see where everybody stands,” Schumer said<\/a> Thursday during a press conference with Pelosi. “No more hopes and prayers.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stay tuned for updates. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
