US to close 'gun show loophole' and require more background checks: A rule requiring gun dealers to obtain federal licenses and conduct background checks ...

reuters.com/world/us/us-close-gun-show-loophole-require-more-background-checks-2024-04-11/

Quick Glance: Biden Administration Implements Stricter Background Checks for Gun Dealers

A new rule by the Biden administration will require thousands of gun dealers to conduct background checks on buyers to close a legal loophole.

President Biden emphasizes that the measure aims to keep guns away from domestic abusers and felons to save lives.

The law mandates that sellers primarily engaged in selling firearms for profit must be federally licensed and perform checks.

Despite praise from advocates, the regulation is likely to face legal challenges from gun rights activists, concerned about potential infringements.
