Thanks for posting that. Id never read about 40 percent tho, all i had ever seen referenced was that about 70 percent of purchases go thru an ffl holder. But i have always wondered how they would have concrete numbers, since private transactions cannot be tracked.

But indid find this interesting, in a search indis after seeing your links.

100 percent of transfers should go thru a check, and the bground system needs to be complete.
