Two television entrepreneurs in California think they have just what America needs: a 24-hour shopping channel for guns.
Using the tag line “Live Shopping. Fully Loaded,” GunTV aims to take the QVC approach of peppy hosts pitching blenders and face-firming lotions and adapt it to the sale of “a vast array of firearms,” as well as related items like bullets, holsters and two-way radios.
Single women with and without kids are buying guns. People are lined up to buy guns.
Now tell that single mom she can't have a pistol that holds more than 9 bullets. Then ask her what happens when 3 thugs break into her home during a home invasion burglary and Diane Feinstein and Gubbner Moonbeam aren't there to protect her.
Gun sales will continue increasing even without a 24 hour channel.
When or if someone orders a gun from a channel like that and then uses it in a shooting: If it is proven that the firearm was purchased through a gun shopping channel, then there are attorneys (for victims families) that will find a way to sue the channel, the cable provider and delivery service that delivered the firearm (FedEx, UPS).
And, just curious. . . . How is a background check done on someone that 'orders' a gun from a 24 hour gun channel. Seriously: I just had to go in person to renew my driver's license and had to wait over an hour at the DMV. If it is easier to buy a gun than renew a drivers license, then something is wrong.

Gun sales are breaking records. There will be over 21 million legally purchased firearms this year alone! I own a couple of guns. Now I am looking at getting a better concealed handgun. Obama has done more for the gun industry than any other President!!!!!(unintentional!)

You already can order a gun over the internet. The gun is sent to a FFL dealer where you then have to go down in person, fill out paperwork, get a NICS check, and follow whatever other state laws exist (Possess license, cooling off period, etc) before buying that particular gun. They don't just mail it to your house like Amazon Prime. In most online transactions a federally licensed dealer needs to be a 3rd party to the sale.
EDIT: This can be slightly different for each state.

I agree. Its not what it seems. The one thing I will say is its like bringing a gun store to your living room. You will see gun sales explode through this. People will be buying like crazy. This will drive the *******s crazy lol!!!!
