Under the 'law' you support, both of us would be felons, if he did so. No you wouldn't.

His brother would be a felon under GCA 1968 since he gave possession of a firearm to a person he knew to be a resident of another state. And he would be a felon also.
THIRD, IT WILL OUTLAW SALES OF SHOTGUNS AND RIFLES TO STRANGERS. PEOPLE WHO DRIFT ACROSS STATE LINES, TOO OFTEN WITHOUT CREDENTIALS, BUY THESE WEAPONS, AS EASILY AS THEY BUY CIGARETTES AND CANDY. THE STATES WHICH HAVE STRONG GUN CONTROL LAWS WILL BE PROTECTED.
The original Joey Bishop show statement, being pure propoganda, uses the word STRANGERS to sell the restriction to the listeners.
If you have done this type of thing with a family member who resides in another state without using an FFL on both ends of the transaction you have committed a felony under GCA 1968. If arrested and convicted for doing this you can no longer own or be in possession of a firearm. IT's JUST THAT DAMN EASY TO GET SOMEONE.
