the FBI is already notified of denials yet they only investigate like 2%..further, when NICS delays a decision and after 2 business days (IIRC) they don't get back to the ffl, the delay is considered approval and the gun goes out the door. If after that the person is found to be disqualified, the FBI is notified and are supposed to retrieve the gun from the unlawful owner..that doesn't get done either..it is maddening that a list daily is available to the FBI of people who were denied that day, many of whom are felons actively trying to buy guns, and they do nothing at all..no, I really don't think anyone wants to reduce gun violence or this one true loophole would easily be fixed by this administration or any other..this is exactly what executive orders are about..ordering appropriation of funds and man power within the federal government to any lawful cause..astounding it is..
