Delaware House Majority Leader Valerie Longhurst (D-Bear) says she will try to close a loop hole that allows a gun store to go ahead with a sale when the background check fails to come back in three days.
The Wilmington News Journal reports noted that nationally the FBI says over 15-thousand 5-hundred gun buys went forward because of the loophole.
In the shooting that left 9 people dead at a South Carolina church accused shooter Dylan Roof got his gun because the background took more than three days.
The News Journal reports that opposition expected to come guns rights groups and Republican state Senator Dave Lawson told the paper that the background check ultimately amount to five days.
And, after that, he added, the delay is on them.
