It seems to be a popular myth that gun show purchases are not done to the same standard as if they were in a gun shop. That is not true. But what can happen, that is not illegal, is the person-to-person (outside the show) transactions. However, the gun is registered to someone and an investigation would lead to who bought it. Most crimes are committed with stolen guns, not gun show guns.
The reason there are no shootings at gun shows...is because more than half the people there are strapped! And the vast majority of people there are law-abiding citizens...unlike our Washington libs.
