I was told yesterday by my BIL that in Miami-Dade a background check is required for private sales of guns now.
Is this something new? Is this required in other South Florida counties too? Broward, Palm Beach???

Miami-Dade Requires BG Check on Private Sales?
Only on public property, like the gun show at the Fairgrounds. That has been the law for many, many years.
Most people just leave the property, & finalize the deal down the road. GARY.
BG checks on private sales are completely unenforceable and not something you should comply with anyway.

God, maybe 10 years ago they were running stings on them at the Miami gun show. So it was definitely being enforced.
To my recollection Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach and and at least one Central Florida county have these rules. Government-as-landlord has leeway not allowed to government-as-government.

It hasn't been found so far. See my post above about government-as-landlord.

Contrary to popular opinion, the fairgrounds aren't owned by the government. The property is owned by a non-profit corporation, The Central Florida Fair, Inc. The property is not "public" so I am pretty sure the county ordinance is not enforceable. I'm pretty sure the owner of the gun show doesn't mind restricting private sales. Especially since he is also the largest participant in the show and private sales are competition.P5 Guy wrote: ↑Fri Mar 29, 2019 4:34 amOrange County home of the tourist trap, Orlando fun show mandates UBC.tector wrote: ↑Thu Mar 28, 2019 3:55 pmGod, maybe 10 years ago they were running stings on them at the Miami gun show.

That being said, I don't want to be the test case.
