If you are legally allowed to purchase a gun and the seller is legally allowed to own a gun... yes. It is a legal private sale. If neither of you or just one of you is not legally allowed to own a gun then no. It's pretty cut and dry. Surely a person with morals would do the right thing.
I don't know how most criminals acquire guns. Let's say most of them will get them illegally.
A background check for private sales will do NOTHING for a criminal as they will just ignore a background check. They will either steal the weapon or buy it from another criminal.
I am saying buy your gun legally. Or from a person you know to be felony free. If you have doubts about that person, don't buy from that person.And how am I supposed to know if the guy across the street is a felon or if there is a body on the gun? Are you trying to say that we shouldn't have background checks at all?

I do not think there needs to be a background checks for private sales. It would do no good.Sounds good in a perfect World. Felons don't get a stamp on their wrist when they get convicted. Maybe they should. Now answer the background check question.

In a perfect world people would all have common sense. No stamp for felons then common sense would tell you, you have no way of knowing that persons background... so go buy a gun legally from a federally licensed dealer.
Man you and Rob... you kill me with this lack of comprehension shit.Why? If I can get it cheaper on the street I will. You don't think criminals buys guns on the street or at a gun show? Don't be naive. If it saves one life then it's worth it. Most of the school shooter's bought their guns legally from a federally licensed gun dealer.
You want me to put a red circle around it?

If I buy a 9mm from the guy who lives across the street is that a legal gun purchase? Isn't that what most criminals do? Isn't that a private gun sale with no background check required?
