Virginia’s new gun control laws will cause firearms sales to plummet, stores say

Pro-Second Amendment groups have contested the new laws

Virginia's new gun control laws passed by the Democrat-controlled state legislature go into effect Wednesday.

The measures includes background checks on all gun sales in the state, a civil penalty for failing to report a lost or stolen gun within 48 hours and a limit on handgun purchases to one per month.

That last measure may take away business from gun stores, Steve Garriss, who has worked as a sales clerk at Clark Brother Gun Shop in Warrenton, Virginia, since 2008, he told FOX Business. Virginia Democrats brought back a law limiting gun buyers to one handgun a month that was repealed in 2012.

"The one handgun a month thing, they had that when I first started working here. They discontinued it. ... You do lose sales from it," Garriss said. "Some people come in, they bought one two weeks ago. Two weeks later, they may not be interested."

Most of us at our gun club are not going to comply. If I want to sell my revolver to Bob, I will and no one will ever know because the cops already don't know what guns I got to sell.

That will not stop criminals from getting guns. Just look at Chicago, toughest gun laws in the nation and more shootings than anywhere in the nation, hows that working? Military medics train in Chicago hospitals for treatment of gun shot victims. Chicago gun laws are a total failure!!

Northwest Woodsman: if a person did not have the foresight to see what was coming with the Marxist democrat takeover, don’t worry, when things explode, you will be able to secure a firearm but it may be at an elevated price. You know, supply and demand!
