Two things I thought I would add,

1. I've purchased MANY guns from dealers in the past, all pistols required a permit in MI (before I moved to Vegas) and rifles required a background check.

2. I was shocked that all I had to do was hand over the cash at the gun show and the gun was mine from a private owner, at the next table was the book to convert it to fully automatic, next to him was a vendor selling 75 round drum magazines and a couple more tables away I could buy cases of ammunition, ALL without anyone checking anything. I would say that the US is by FAR the easiest place to get a weapon capable of doing some serious damage and it's quite scary how easy it is to get, do I enjoy that freedom, of course I do, but I also realize that the definte wrong types of people could be picking up weapons in these places.
