Universal background checks on private-party firearm transactions not only impose heavy regulatory burdens on federally licensed retailers, but they would also require a national gun registry, which is unlawful, have no effect on criminals, pose a confiscation risk for law-abiding gun owners and open retailers up to unprecedented liability exposure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s most glaring is the so-called \u201cassault weapons\u201d ban the president, vice president and gun control legislators in federal, state and local offices continue to call for has been rejected by the American people. That includes during the first two years of the Biden-Harris administration, in which the president\u2019s party held control of the U.S. House, the U.S. Senate and the White House. Not even all members of the Democratic-controlled Senate supported a new \u201cassault weapons\u201d ban and it failed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, opposition to a federal ban on Modern Sporting Rifles (MSRs) reached new highs while Americans also purchased more MSRs than ever before.

The reaction from those closest to the victims, such as Petty and others, showed there are alternative real solutions that have real impact and proven results.
