You’re getting a lot wrong here.

“However, one needs a federal permit to sell one.”

Incorrect.
You only need an FFA if you are setting gun as a business venture. Basically selling more than a certain amount in a set period of time. Selling a single gun is permitted without any license in almost all states.

“Buying a gun from an unlicensed private party is called a “straw purchase” and is illegal”

Incorrect again.
A “Straw purchase” is one person buying a gun for someone else to actually posses, (Usually someone who is legally prohibited from owning a gun) thus allowing the receiver of the weapon to avoid paperwork and legal requirements.

“and the main source of weapons being used in crime.”

And again, Incorrect.
Stolen guns are used in crimes more often that any other method of acquiring a gun.

When did the sherrif’s department start selling guns to buy back? They didn’t? Then how can they buy the guns back? These half-wits should buy a brain.

I believe the Sheriff & Department are neutral in this instance.

They did not do a "buyback", nor offer to do one.

The Sheriff is investigating, for possible prosecution, the Private Nonprofit that DID a "buyback" on the street without proper licenses or paperwork.

I am a Life Member of the NRA.

That doesn't mean that you understand the Politics, Lawfare, Unconstitutional and Illegal Actions of ATF Bureaucrats, Corruption of Federal Law Enfarcement, Kangaroo Courts, Legal Machinations, and Marxist Nazi Arrogance.

...if the firearms are promptly destroyed then where’s the harm?

That is ABSOLUTELY not the point.

The Point is that there are a group of Leftist that is ABOVE THE LAW, and ordinary citizens that HAVE NO RIGHTS WHATSOEVER.

Yes, I do understand these things and I also understand the correct solution includes 1.5-1.75 pounds of force applied to a trigger.
