ORLANDO, Fla. - Recent changes to state gun laws raised the minimum age to 21 for gun purchases with a three-day waiting period. But 9 Investigates discovered that there remains a legal loophole to obtain semi-automatic weapons without a background check.
For several hundred dollars, anyone can buy one without a background check, no matter their age.
Lake County deputies helped 9 Investigates' Karla Ray assemble a "ghost gun," so named because it lacks a serial number, making it untraceable.
"It's a legal means of obtaining a weapon," Lake County Detective James Getford said. |

TO REMEMBER |
| The supposed quietude of a good mans allures the ruffian; while on the other hand, arms like laws discourage and keep the invader and the plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property. The same balance would be preserved were all the world destitute of arms, for all would be alike; but since some will not, others dare not lay them aside...Horrid mischief would ensue were one half the world deprived of the use of them... — Thomas Paine, I Writings of Thomas Paine at 56 (1894). |
