you've never been to a gun show, have you? non dealers cannot setup a stand or table, at least none of the gun shows I've ever worked at have let them. private citizens who want to sell a private gun have always had to carry it on their person and have some sort of sign indicating what they want to sell. All the TX gunshows I've been to require the person to have an FFL if they want to set up a table or booth. As to selling to a felon, it's not my responsibility to ensure that the person has the right to own a gun. I am not responsible for someone breaking the law, nor should I be required to.
dk...I recall seeing a stat that more than 30 states do not limit gun show displays and sales to FFL registered dealers. I know for a fact that unlicensed dealers display and sell at gun shows in Virginia.

I will have to find the source (I think it was the National Conference of State Legislatures)

By any reasonable standard, that is a loophole.
