Do pawn shops do a background check before you pawn a firearm?
Not before the firearm is pawned. To pawn a firearm, you must have proof of your identity. Before the firearm can be redeemed when it has been pawned, the pawn shop will have you complete a Form 4473, and conduct a background check, same as if you bought the gun from them. If you cannot pass a background check, the firearm CANNOT be returned to you. You can SELL it to the pawnshop, or have them sell it on your behalf. Pawnshops hold a special Federal Firearms License (an 02FFL) and must follow the procedures laid out in Federal law.

What states can i buy a gun without a permit and a background check?
Most states do not require a permit to purchase a firearm. However, ALL states require that you have a background check when you purchase a firearm from a dealer. This has been Federal law for several years (and yes, it DOES include a purchase at a gun show, no matter what you may have read).Having said that, if you cannot pass a background check, it is illegal for you to possess a firearm in any state. The penalty for that starts at 5 years in a Federal prison, no probation, no parole, and the food sucks. Think about that.
Can you find out when background checks were done when you bought a gun?
Any time you purchase a firearm from a dealer, Federal law requires that the dealer must run a background check at that time. The exception is that certain states issue a concealed weapons license that ALSO requires a background check- proof of licensing takes the place of a background check. So if you bought a gun from a dealer, you have had a background check made.
