lso killed.Manchin, a red-state Democrat working with 
blue-state Republican Sen. Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania, is trying to broker 
a deal that would expand criminal and mental health background checks by 
pressuring states to share data on prohibited purchasers and to include 
sales that take place through a commercial enterprise.An individual could 
sell another individual a gun without a background check, but if a 
commercial entity is involved  hosting a gun show or an Internet 
site  mandatory checks would be required. Even as gun control proponents 
bemoan the deal as watered down, gun rights groups remain worried that 
the legislation could be altered to create a federal firearms registry. 
The Manchin-Toomey plan forbids the creation of such a list, but conservatives 
hold little trust when it is the Obama Justice Department that is 
doing the enforcement.But even if Manchin-Toomey somehow survives the Senate 
and passes the House, it would not prevent the next Newtown. Or 
the next Aurora. Or the next Tucson. Or the next Blacksburg. All 
of the weapons said to be involved in those mass killings were 
legally purchased from gun merchants and subject to full federal background 
checks.And while gun control advocates can be happy that the expanded system 
may mean fewer gun sales, theres little reason to think that Manchin-Toomey

gun-maker announced on Wednesday it intends to leave the state, just six 
days after passage of restrictive gun control legislation, while two other 
manufacturers said they are considering relocation offers from other states.Manufacturers 
also plan to lobby the state's congressional delegation next week "to make 
sure they hear from our side," said Mark Malkowski, president of Stag 
Arms in New Britain.Bristol-based PTR said in a statement posted on its 
website that it has not decided where it will move, but has 
commitments from most employees to relocate. The company makes military-style 
rifles and employs more than 40 people. PTR Vice President John McNamara 
said the company expects to make a more formal announcement about a 
move within six weeks."Along with other companies in the trade, we were 
deeply apprehensive at the hurried process to develop new gun laws and 
fearful that it would generate unintended consequences for our industry," 
the company said.With the legislation signed into law by Gov. Dannel P. 
Malloy on April 4, "our worst fears were confirmed," the company said. 
"What emerged was a bill fraught with ambiguous definitions, insufficient 
considerations for the trade, conflicting mandates and disastrous consequences
