Yes. Define a gift. How long before you can resell the weapon and it becomes an illegal transfer? We give our liberty up to the ever changing interpretation of faceless officials in the DOJ and the courts. We give our freedom up to cops on the beat. We give up our freedoms to the latest mood of the mob.
This is serious felony level stuff left open to interpretation by those who wish to do us harm. So the ATF picks out somebody to test the boundary of what they can prosecute. It might be you.

Good question. I imagine there are plenty of people who buy a firearm and after shooting it a couple of times decide they don't like the way it feels, shoots, etc. then decide to resell it fairly quickly after the original purchase.

You are aware he lied on the form, correct? Do you propose that we simply ignore laws because we "feel" like it? That sounds like some liberals I know. The simple fact is, you cannot purchase a firearm on behalf of anyone specifically with the intent of buying it for them for them to reimburse you with that very intent.
If you don't like the law, change the law, but ignore laws is why conservatives don't have respect for liberals.
