I'm guessing that one objection to mandatory background checks for private sales is the difficulty (and potential cost) of having the checks done. So the requirement, and max cost, were probably added to the legislation to address that concern.

Of course I still can't see the logic in forcing FFL's to perform this service, especially since they aren't licensed by the state.
I am wondering how they can legally force an FFL to perform this service. My guess is that the firearm stores will be where the majority of transfers end up. Then again if it pays 35 dollars a pop to do them, there may be FFL's who see the benefit financially.

Re: NM: Walmart to stop selling guns in New Mexico

It seems a bit of a stretch to REQUIRE an FFL do a background check for anyone who asks.
