The Biden administration says it's closing the so-called gun show
loophole for firearms purchases.
A new rule that will take effect next month will
subject all gun buyers to background checks,
even in purchases at places like gun shows and flea
markets.
The rule was authorized in the 2022 bipartisan Safer Communities
Act,
passed by Congress with nominal support by Republicans.
The administration says numerous high profile mass shootings have been
carried out with weapons purchased through the gun show loophole,
including the one at Columbine High School in Colorado 25
years ago next week.
