The laws in place for firearms purchase have not changed. Purchaser must produce ID, complete the federal Firearms Transaction Record, and undergo a background check to buy a gun.

What HAS changed is that anyone of legal age who isn't a felon can carry, openly or concealed, a firearm without any sort of training or licensing.

That's bad enough.
