Gee I remember back when we bought guns,no pictures on the internet just descriptions,no tracking,just put a check in the mail and waited a couple weeks for it to arrive.
I remember buying guns from magazine ads, like you said Dave, just send in your money and wait for the gun to show up at your house....hand guns, long guns, made no difference.....
Then the politicians got involved after some guy from Massachusetts got shot in Dallas, they said their new laws would solve everything..........
Guess they didn't know what they were talking about, no surprise, they still don't......
