Because you don't apply to a gun company to buy a gun. (You actually apply to the government...chew on that one for a while.)

- bakies 10d agoDidn't need to chew, I already know the government doesn't do enough to curb gun violence.
- ThunderSizzle 10d agoWell, in my state, you don't "apply" for a gun like you apply for a license. It is just document that you purchased it after the seller runs a background check. The government isn't attesting to your capabilities - that is still on you as a citizen.
- Sharlin 10d agoBut that's an outlier. In normal countries you apply for a license, THEN after you get it, you're allowed to purchase a firearm.
- hokumguru 10d ago> you don't "apply" for a gun like you apply for a license. >... background check Who requires these background checks? Because the seller wouldn't do them unless obligated. Obviously the check and paperwork around it constitutes at least a de facto application to the government for permission to purchase the firearm.
