SHOCK: Persons obtain dozens of firearms without background check

by Chad D. Baus

7:00am Thursday, November 29, 2018

According to so-called "common-sense" gun control extremists like Mark Kelley's "Americans for Responsible Solutions," all we have to do to keep criminals from gaining access to firearms is to mandate that a background check be done before all transfers of firearms.
