Gun Money Handshake

A common practice of selling firearms in an informal setting without submitting the purchaser to a background check. Surprisingly, it is perfectly legal in most places for rifles and shotguns but handguns are usually prohibited (considering statistics, rifles and shotguns are used in a small percentage of crime). GMH makes purchasing old or used guns at shows or flea markets a breeze. However, you must always fill out paperwork to purchase new firearms from a dealer.

Gun Money Handshake: Guy: Wow, M1 Garands! How much for this one? Old Guy: $800 please. Guy: <pays> Here you go. Old Guy: Pleasure doing business. Background check: Guy: Cool, the new Bushmaster ACR! I'll take it! Dealer: Have a seat and fill out this paperwork, please. <15 mins> Dealer: <calls insta-check hotline, guy is clear> That'll be $2,715.34 with tax and $20 transfer fee. Guy: <pays> Dealer: Pleasure doing business.
