Subject: RE: BS: Gun Sales Are Up
Yes, in Oregon they do all of the background checking that they'd do any place else in the country. Some states have a waiting period. I think the purpose of that is, if you have a domestic dispute, for instance, one party or the other can't go out and buy a gun and then come back and shoot the other party. Given the length of time the customer has to stand around in the store while all of the background checks are completed, I would think there would be little chance of something like that happening.
