Are you one of those ultra conservative nuts?
Remember, gun nuts should always be protected by a properly fitted cup.

Well," if one were too dense" to deduce the flaw in your question, hence my question, the I'll have to explain.

Good luck. Something just won't sink in about top posting..
There's another possibility. In some states, possession of a Concealed Handgun License exempts the bearer from the NICS check, so the FBI has no knowledge of those transactions (probably not a lot). Some other folks are also exempt, such as peace officers.
Even though I'm exempt from an NICS check, I make it a practice to NEVER buy a gun from a dealer.
Interesting. I hadn't considered that. Now that I have, I still don't care.
Well, I CARE a little bit, but the alternatives are far worse than a handfull of do-bads stocking up on ammunition. Chances are that the goblins who end up with a trunkfull of bullets will use them mostly to kill other goblins. So that's good.
I bought 1540 rounds of 7.62x25 just a couple of weeks ago; I'm kind of tapped out for a while. (I do have 100 rounds of .380 still on backorder from about 5 or 6 months ago...)
How about if I buy a handgun or two instead? Does that count? :-)

Buying ammo now is like buying gold, in more ways than one. You should have bought both a few years ago when houses were thought to be the best investment.
I jumped the gun and bought mine today. I found 200 rnds of 45 at Walmart today. :)
Works for me.
So, what do you do if you want a brand new gun?
Reasonable. Is it done that way for ammo? I doubt it but don't actually know.
In NY State: Show pistol permit to buy pistol ammo. Ammo must match one of the guns listed on the permit. Rifle ammo: Nobody's ever asked me for anything but money.
NYC may or may not be different. I have no idea.
New law in California. Buyer must present identification and that information, plus a thumbprint, is logged by the seller. Also, all sales must be face-to-face, i.e., no more internet sales.
I thought that didn't take effect until January of 2010.

NIB or new to me? For new-to-me, I generally buy guns from individuals at gun shows (the so-called "gun show loophole"). Of these, there are two kinds: The guy who rented a table (~$100) to facilitate his private buying and selling, and the guy walking around with a gun in his hand (code for "stop me and ask how much I'll take").
I've picked up a couple of guns at estate sales, but they're generally over-priced.
Hint: If you represent a corporation, the corporation can buy a gun without a background check. This is most useful for buying fully-automatic weapons. When asked on the ATF form for the purpose of obtaining a fully-automatic weapon, the appropriate answer is "investment."
Yep. With sufficient ammunition, all other things are obtainable - including gold.

As if that's gonna stop people from driving to Nevada,Arizona,or Oregon and buying a carload there. Hell,that's the next criminal enterprise;smuggled out-of-state ammo,sold out of auto trunks. then Kalifornia is going to whine for National controls on ammo,and the Appeaser In Chief and his DemocRAT Congress will oblige them.
one more reason for CA residents to stock up early. Especially the criminal element.
I'm leaving CA in July of 2010. :-)

TX - 18+ to buy rifle ammo, 21+ to buy pistol ammo. As long as you meet the age requirements we don't care what you buy. And certainly no pistol permits specifying specific guns.
Other than the amusement of blowing $100 in ammo in a few seconds on the range, why exactly would anyone want a full auto gun? In my not so humble opinion, full auto is only good for wasting valuable ammo.
