Okay, Party A buys the gun for himself, drives home and decides, during the following week, to sell it to his next door neighbor. Now what?
Thats the problem with this: SCOTUS didnt set a timframe threshood.
So until they do (future case) or the straw purchase laws are rewritten to provide a better definition, think it ends up falling into the same category as Justice Frankfurters (I think it was him) criteria for pornography: we’ll know it when we see it.
Not a good answer, of course, but this Court has a pattern of making the public live under the problemmatic laws the officials they elect write (ex A: Obamacare). And this was a HORRIBLE case for the NRA to hang it’s hat on, given that it really was a straw purchase (just not one intended to putvthe weapon into the hands of a criminal.)
