When someone buys a gun from a private seller at the show and passes a background check, a second tag will be affixed to the gun as documentation that the screening was conducted. When guns are taken out of the show, they will be checked to ensure that either the gun is leaving with the owner or seller who brought it in, or has a second tag to confirm that a background check was done for the new owner.

What ever happened to privacy? This is sneaky backdoor registration.

Great... bet the black market and back alley deal number about to explode.

Privacy? Mr. Citizen, if you have no nefarious intentions, then you'll comply and everything will be OK. It's for your safety after all, and the safety of the children...

We sacrifice everything for the children don't you know? It started with the "Caution: Baby on Board" window signs in cars. So every one knows to give a wide berth to that vehicle for the safety of that child. Really? Did that EVER change how you drove around that vehicle?
