[QUOTE=kman866;39287590]Gun shows can rip you off, or you can find a great deal. It all varies.
If you buy from a dealer there, you have to fill out paperwork and do a standard background check (unless you have a carry permit, which you already go through a background check when you get that permit.) Private sales are different- no paperwork required or a background check.[/QUOTE]
I find it funny that when two private persons are doing a car deal they'd need all kinds of paperwork, both for the ownership of that car, and in most cases also for the insurance.
There's a lesson somewhere...
[QUOTE=Jsm;39285662]I think there is a difference between concealed carry and storing a loaded gun in a bag.[/QUOTE]
not really. some people want to be protected on their way to and from their job but their job doesn't allow them to have weapons on them. so what do you do, leave a loaded glock on your passenger seat? a logical person would store it in a brief case or duffle bag. not saying the person in question isn't a fucking idiot, but your statement is inaccurate.
[QUOTE=teh pirate;39285322]Not only is leaving a gun loaded irresponsible and dangerous, it's also bad for the gun... springs fail under tension, my cousin had 3-4 magazines for his AR-15 go bad because he left them loaded - I imagine you'd have the same issue in any internal magazine. You'd think at least one of the two reasons would get through to these people.[/QUOTE]

The difference being it's much easier to keep tabs on car registration. There's absolutely no way you can sell a car to someone without paperwork because they need the paperwork to be able to register it so it's legal to drive. It'd be very hard to enact a similar system on firearms, although I agree that private party sale is quite a loophole.

you don't have to do one sheet of paperwork unless it's for the road, I don't have to do one sheet of paperwork unless it's NFA
Holy shit his happened 20 minutes from me. I've actually been to that gun show before.
Clearly the gun could sense its freedoms were at stake and that it was surrounded by communists and did its patriotic duty ban videogames 2k13.

Its the whole having a round chambered thing that was the issue I was hinting at the be honest. I couldn't for the life of me think of the correct terminology when I wrote the post. But still, that would only be an issue if it was being carried in that manner, in this case it appears they were just moving it from one place to another which even my limited knowledge of guns and gun safety tells me it should have been completely unloaded.

the ones I'm keeping loaded are kept loaded to 25 rounds instead of 30, but if I'm actually using them and not just storing them loaded I load them to 30. I don't really buy into the myth but I figure better safe than sorry
This wouldnt hppen without violent video gayms.
Every show I've been to, you are required to present any firearms you are bringing in to a police officer to ensure it is unloaded. Even carry weapons are required to be like this.
Most of the time when this happens, it's a gun a dealer whips out of his holster or whatever. It goes off, hopefully nobody gets hit, and the dealer is ordered to pack up his table and not return.
That's pretty sad that the person who brought it in was too careless to even bother checking if it was loaded. Either way though, like what plenty of people said already you shouldn't ever point a firearm at anyone if you don't intend on shooting them. V:v:V
Edit: I know he was trying to pull it out, but still, could have been avoided. But really most fault is in the person who brought it in, in my opinion.
