If any random person can open a specific type of (weapon) safe with just a youtube tutorial, then that type of safe really needs to lose its status as a safe meeting the requirements for a legal weapon safe.

Ultimately, no safe is completely uncrackable, and lockpicking isn't that hard to learn, so it's never going to be truly possible to secure it against somebody that's seriously dedicated to getting into it. That said, a great many gun safes can be broken into with a paper clip and therefore provide absolutely no security, and those should not be on the market.

I'm inclined to say that something so high-stakes shouldn't allowed to be advertised as a gun safe at all, rather than trusting people to only buy appropriately certified ones. The general public doesn't have the best track record of spending extra for proper certifications.

In theory, but it's easier to just not allow them to be sold than to have to check on people who can play dumb if they get called on their inadequate safe.

Would the background check have shown anything? Not saying we shouldnt do them but if he is 18 Id imagine there wouldnt be a lot to go on.

In Nebraska you have to get a firearms purchase permit from the county sheriff or chief of police, which costs $5 and is good for three years. It takes up to 3 weeks to run the background checks and receive your permit. This is only required for handguns; it makes purchasing rifles and shotguns faster and easier but isn't necessary.

You are pretty much guaranteed to be issued the permit unless you have been indicted, charged, or convicted of a crime with a sentence greater than 1 year, are a fugitive from justice, are an illegal drug user, have been committed to a mental institution, are an illegal alien, an alien on a non-immigrant visa, or citizen who renounced your citizenship, received a dishonorable discharge, are under a restraining order, or were convicted of domestic violence.

Which has about half our population? So would having more cops available not be an argument for them actually being able to do such checks more?

If you walk into a store to purchase a gun, you get a background check. Period.
I don't get where people get this idea that people are skirting checks left and right. They bitch about online sales too. You CAN NOT have a gun shipped to your house. It has to be shipped to a FFL dealer. Guess what happens when you go to pick your gun up from the dealer? That's right, background check.

You clearly didn't read my post. Every single firearm purchased from a licensed dealer requires a background check.

Private person to person sales are not as common as people think they are, and they're usually between people who know each other. Everyone always points to gun shows, but I've never been to a gun show that didn't require you to fill out a 4473 for anything you buy. The exception of course would be illegal gun deals which are already, you know . . . Illegal.

Do you have anything to back that up? Because as far as Ive seen, including talking to guys that purchased firearms when they were stationed in Texas, all FFL purchased weapons require your standard background check l (aside from your CC exemption, because you have to have a background check for that).

also bypassed the 7 day waiting period to pick it up, because no one has time for that at an auction

it's very extremely easy to just get a gun

Are you talking about that? Because that was last year. Theres a huge difference between removing background check requirements for a CC and removing them for the purchase of firearms.

Maybe if there were more laws regarding gun control you wouldnt have guys buy a weapon and kill someone a few hours later with it.
