Mr. Kelly is a real piece of work, using his wife's injury for money and fame....how else would anyone look at what he is doing....

It can’t be denied. Some people aren’t mentally fit to own firearms.

Oh no, Mark won’t have a rifle to turn into the police anymore.
Store could have just come out and said he was making a straw purchase. He was. And so, violating the law.

As he falsified a legal document, he should now get a summons to appear in court

Only if he filled out the 4473 already. That is done at pickup usually.

Reading the letter from the gun shop, the conclusion I made was that they were avoiding a straw man purchase. It made clear that the reason for rejection was that the gun was destined for someone other than the person filling the 4473.

If he signed the background check form his statements indicate he was committing a felony. Time to turn in the .45 he also bought.

he was making a straw purchase...
Agreed. He was. And didn’t Bloomberg and his flying monkeys do the exact same thing a while back? AFAIK, that’s a serious FELONY...
Sad.

As Kelly was not buying the gun for himself: therefore could not have passed the background check .

I know, they hinted at it. they did not come out in plain english and just say it was a straw man purchase. They should have. and they should have made a point to say such purchases are ILLEGAL as well.
Fully embarrass and also fully make people aware of exactly what his quickly-made, badly-constructed lie (because he only said this AFTER being discovered, he wasn’t going to do this until discovered) meant in legal terms.

You’re right, they should have. I got the feeling they wanted to extricate themselves with zero damage.

IIRC, it was a used rifle someone sold them, and the store had to wait approx. 20 days before they could legally resell it. If Kelly said “hold on to it, “I’ll be back in a month to pick it up” that might be different.

You can buy a firearm with the intent to give it away so long as it's not to a person you know to be disqualified. The store should have just said "You don't believe in civil rights for others, therefore you get none yourself. We don't sell to liberal dickheads."
