It shouldn't, but Dominick Black testified under oath in court that Kyle gave him the money to buy the AR, and Kyle told him what rifle to buy, and Kyle had access to it.
So I say Kyle never took possession of the rifle, so no straw purchase was made, but this might end up in court where another 12 people will decide Kyle's fate to determine if it was a straw purchase or not.
Dominick Black would be charged with making a false statement on the 4473, which is a maximum of 10 years, and Kyle would be charged with consipracy, which is 5 years.
That would be a pretty petty prosecution, considering the history the feds have with F-and-F, Clinton prosecuting only 8 of the 250K 4473 denials that he bragged about, and the Feebs going out to retrieve Hunter Biden’s pistol from the trash. But, petty seems to be the order of the day.
