I'm pretty sure the states need some sort of basic requirement to protect their citizens with the background checks. It's federally mandated.

If I'm buying a gun, I've already gone through the checks. Hence, I show my card to the seller when getting the gun.

Minnesotans love their guns, too. Lots of hunters here.
